Thanks for the help! We actually tried antigen retrieval in Holy water in a pressure cooker for 10 minutes. I even brought in an old priest and a young priest to perform the staining but no luck! Sorry, no vendor for the holy water - the old priest makes his own.
I enjoyed the laugh! This project has been hell!
