Send those puppies out to your local powder coater. Or buy a powder coater, tape 'em off, spray 'em with powder, and bake 'em up.
If you guys don't already have a powder coating set up at your shop, Eastwood sells on that isn't expensive.
The nail polish will fade. I used red nail polish on the Maltese Cross on my Firefighter tag(before GA made the crosses red), and it faded after a few months.
