faded deer horns

I have an old set of Whitetail antlers I was trying to make into a knife sharpener. The problem is that they have faded from being out in the elements for some time now. They are a chalky white in color. They are not cracked but they are dry. Is there anything I can do to bring them back? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank You, Cody

Dont know if I spelled it right but thats what I've used and it works great. Jonas sells it in small packets or you can get it at water purifying stores. Put it on in wash coats to build up to the color you desier and then sligthly buff them. Also check the archives as there is a ton of information on the process in there. : )
