I have a 2005 Honda CR-V SE in Taffeta White, with the optional gold
emblem kit.  While the two "H" logos look alright at the moment, I am
absolutely disgusted with the way the gold "CR-V" emblem has weathered -
or not - the past ten months, including a very mild winter season.

 There's what looks to be a very thin, brittle plastic film curling off
of the lettering, along with some tiny greenish pitting on the letters'
surface.  Some areas remain bright and shiny when polished up, but for
the most part, the emblem's pretty dull.  So, what I'd really like to
know is if there's some special product and/or procedure for
rejuvenating these emblems and preventing them from deteriorating
further?

 I'm sure I'm going to have to replace one or more of the emblems more
sooner than later, but, in light of the cost of the gold kit, I was
hoping to get a little more life out of what I have.  So, any input that
you folks can offer would be greatly appreciated, and I'll certainly be
looking forward to reading your replies!

 Thanks in advance for your help and Happy Motoring!
