Got a couple nice slabs of sheephorn that I am fitting to my Vaquero. After all of the sanding and polishing, what do I treat them with to really bring out the color and protect them?

For the finish, the rouge is abrasive (I'm pretty sure)

When I asked Rob Rowen about the "finish" on the grips he made for me here was his response... "There is no finish on the horn! It is sanded really fine , buffed and then waxed."     |
