What to do about a peeling badge?
I have a 2006 Bianchi 928. It's a beautiful bike, but recently the badge on the seat tube has begun to peel off. I have no idea why. I always keep the bike indoors and away from water and am very gentle when washing it. But the badge is made from a soft plastic and is basically carved out, so it is not one piece. The head of the eagle in the center is coming off. I need to do something fast before it is damaged irreparably. I guess I need to use some kind of glue, but it needs to be something strong, that will last, something I can apply to a tiny location and not screw up the carbon or make a mess. Anyone have any suggestions?

gorilla glue
doesn't cure as fast as krazy glue and you can wipe off any excess.
