Steve, Try a standard white rubber (UK speak) or eraser (USA speak). Just a light rub should polish up the gold. I have used it in the past quite effectively for tarnish & surface contaminants on gold finish. I have not done any analysis as to the effects of using this method but I am sure some of our colleagues out there will put us right if they figure out any detrimental effects.
