Horn Grease?

Do Older Mercedes use a grease for the horn contacts behind the steering wheel? Dielectric grease is not recommended. Chevy used to use a brown grease on theirs years ago. Mercedes uses a brown goo on their switch contacts. Does anyone have a part number of that grease or know about the horn grease? Maybe it goes together dry?

Is horn grease like blinker fluid!

The only reason I think they'd put any grease on the is to reduce the noise when turning the wheel. I've never seen horn grease on a Benz, or put any on any of my MBs.

No Horn Grease in Deutschland

'Only thing you might put there would be Stabilant 22 .
BUT you wouldn't because of the COST.
AND MB Horn contacts are not a problem.
