Default Proper horn care

Can any taxis out there recommend the proper product to put on horns to keep them looking good? I have a Blackbuck Antelope that is a couple years old and the horns looking washed out. I have heard of using mineral oil or lin seed oil to maintain them but wanted to check with the experts first. Thanks.

You can use a 50/50 turpentine/boiled linseed oil mix. Dip a little on a rag and apply lightly.
