How to polish a titanium band

Is there a DIY home polish kit available. Like some sort of cream polish.

Specifically a Omega Seamaster.

Don't use cream polish or brasso on titanium. You won't be happy with the result.

Try this:

I'll pass.

I just read how some people used the DIY home polish kits and screwed up the finish. I did buy that kit from the above link. I'm not going to use it though.

Polishing titanium material is near impossible, and attempting to do it yourself will only piss you. I say just leave it and live with it...I did.
