Cleaning gold emblems on my car

The gold emblems on my car are 24 K gold. They became dull and spotted due to the very harsh winter and amount of salt they were exposed to. What is the best way to clean them?

Thank you.

You can have the company that did your gold plating try using the gold polish to see if that can help; or try using canuba wax.
