looking for advice with stabilized burl scales

Hey guys. I'm new to knife making so I'm looking for some advice. I've recently purchased some stabilized burl scales online. They had a lot more color in the pictures than when I got them on the knife. I wet sanded the scales to 2000 grit. I thought that would be enough to get the desired look from them but it didn't quite work. My thoughts are either I didn't sand them down far enough or they weren't good scales to begin with. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
