Probably best you stop using it on your Victor.
If it were me, I'd even wash the horn down with vinegar, which is what they recommend to remove their chemical concoction, and use a good quality car wax, or even bees wax, to give your horn a lasting shine
Thanks for the info!! I wont use it on the horn for sure now!
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
