Positive battery terminal

Does anyone know why my positive battery terminal always gets that powerdy blueish-green build up on it? When I clean it it just comes right back. What might be the cause of this?

Its oxidation, usually caused by moisture, just try and keep it clean.

Get a can of battery cleaner and a can of battery protectant. The first one will obviously clean the battery and the other will keep that buildup and also corrosion from occuring.
