| Has anyone ever tried to clean the outside of a silver plated horn with household silver cleaner? I know it would probably cake in the valves and jack those up real good, but what about just the bell? |

Many household silver cleaners are abrasive, meaning they will gradually wear away the finish of your horn. I find that somewhat undesirable, and use Tarnishield instead. FWIW! - Don
