Acetone works on the newer emblems; the older ones were made differently. Forgot the exact years, but prior posts have those details.
Try pointing your garden hose at your hubs for a litle while on full blast. Then hit with a quick burst of WD-40 (don't saturate the area -- if a quick burst doesn't do it, stop there). If they still don't turn.... such is the price you pay for the convenience of ESOF. But look at it this way -- if they were manual hubs and you never locked them, you'd have a problem as well.
