My 6 yr old car Volvo has the original battery and perfect terminals sprayed with something red that has kept them corrosion free, but I need a new battery and want it done right. On the other car a 91 my terminals corrode so they must be cleaned anualy, I have ruined the soft lead by cleaning them so often on the battery and cable that I had to put in sheet metal because they would not tighten. How do you completely treat connections on the battery so no corrosion occurs, ever. My batteries were replaced by pro shops, Delco, but I say they screwed up since my 2002 still has no corrosion, but it now needs replacing and I want to do it right on this replacement so I get no corrosion in a year or so.
