i have had alot of luck sanding to 400grit and polishing with white rouge. You can even rub it on with a cloth.
 
i just use my belt sander and a 600 grit j weight belt and give it a good sanding then hit it with the buffer.
 
Buffing will shine it back up, but it also tends to make it a bit slick in my experience. If you're looking to keep all of the texture of blasting or similar "grippy" treatments while getting rid of the dull look that G10 takes you can oil it. I like to use a few coats of danish oil which seems to stick and dry where WD40 or similar will get drawn back out quickly with handling.
