You might also try to coat any finished connection with SP-400 from CRC or a similar anti-corrosion cover.

It dries to a wax like coat.

Where I live (humid and salty), car batteries will develop a white powder on their poles within 2-3 weeks of new.

With SP-400 there is nothing for as long as SP-400 is on. As long as you do not remove it with e.g. WD-40, it will stay indefinite...

I slobber almost everything I have (not counting body parts) with Corrosion X. Dielectric paste might last even longer but never tried it.

compatable with each oher.......Di-electric paste was used to eliminate or at

least slow down the problem.........

Someone mentioned using die-electric paste on fuses, has anyone tried this? I have many noncritical circuits protected with fuses. My old pickup truck gives me fits every spring when I get out to use, because the fuses have lost contact with no visual indication of any kind. JohnD
