Is it a good idea to put Vaseline on a coax connection, or will
it
damage the thread? *thanks.

It won't damage anything, but it might be kinda messy. Is this
connection
outdoors?

I much prefer clear silicone grease like GC 10-8101. I've opened up
outdoor 'F' connectors after 15 years and still looking like new. The
antenna got mangled by the roofers but the connections were fine.
