Its actually on my boat. The terminals are getting very hot. Do you just wire brush them and go, or is there something that will work better and longer?

There's a special tool......>>>
Little wire brush thing you just push on and turn, or just use a regular wire brush. Most marine stores also sell little pads that go on the terminals that fight corrosion...

I use some warm water, with baking soda mixed in (fairly heavy mix)>>>>>>
and then before reconnecting the cables, but a couple drops of dishsoap on the terminal to help prevent the corrosion from returning.
Works on my 64 Chevy - never tried on TT.
