Battery Terminal "Coating"
As usual, another question for the Racers that know their stuff....
I just added Dual-AGM Batteries to the Trunk of my Race Car (an Old 1970 Olds 442 Super Stock Car that I now "ET" and "Nostalgia" Race for fun). I have a question about Battery Terminal "Coating" for the Terminals to prevent corrosion over time. I have heard there is someone that makes a "clear" Coating/Spray? or? that I can apply to the Terminals that doesn't "make a mess" or become unsightly...Don't really want gooey Red, Purple of Yellow "ooze" all over the Terminals, etc. Does anyone know of a "clear" product like this that they could recommend? I'm asking in this Forum because I always receive good, solid answers here....really appreciate the help. Harold |

Thanks Keith. Haven't had any experience yet with AGM's.

Re: Battery Terminal "Coating"
The little install kits in the auto parts with the red and green anti corrosion discs, come with a pack of dielectric grease for this purpose.
It will leave it greasy and may not be something you want to deal with. I would think in a race car the battery would be charged and serviced enough you could stay on top of this without any grease or sprays. I have seen Optimas corrode over time if neglected, |

Re: Battery Terminal "Coating"
I retired from AT&T
We used this product on all electrical connections including bare copper before installing crimped on lugs. Works Great! https://www.amazon.com/NO-OX-ID-Tube...9832133&sr=8-3
