Does anyone have any suggestions to clean the battery terminals or something I can put on them to prevent future corrosion? Thanks [IMG_20200201_135411354]

How old is that battery? Once they start leaking like that I just recommend replacing the battery. Trying to keep a seeping battery clean is a losing battle.

Before cleaning the terminals or replacing the battery, clean it with some very hot water. Get that crud off before you touch it.

Once cleaned, a coat of dielectric/silicone grease is the thing. Vaseline ok too.

The battery terminals look reasonable, anti-corrosive pads and coated with silicone, the top of the battery appears to have a lot of residue from the last cleaning effort, I would rinse it off during the next car wash.
