Not sure what batteries you are talking about. You can buy a plastic (non-corrosive) hold down for your chassis battery(s). Problem solved. You can paint (clean well and use epoxy paint) the metal hold down clamps commonly used on the coach batteries.
Are you overfilling/overcharging the coach batteries? That eventually tends to bubble the acid out of the battery(s) which then gets all over the battery compartment. Rinsing/brushing regularly with baking soda/water solution is your economical friend.
