Who has tried polishing the silver stainless band?

I read in one thread where a forum Member did polish the stainless bands and removed the scratches with no issues.
I used Mothers Mag after my iPhone X suffered its first drop (fell off my bathroom counter), and it worked perfectly. I taped the screen edges just to be safe, after hearing that someone accidentally removed the coating on their Apple Watch screen.
It’s only for lighter scratches though. I still have a bit of a gouge that’s rather deep, where I think it landed on the edge of my glass scale. While the polish did smooth it out quite a bit, it’s still too deep to remove.

The benefit you are looking for on the polishing cloths, is to remove the micro scratches.. Why do we say micro scratches... that so future cliché.
Look for minor little stuff, incidentals, pocket contaminates, etc, the cloth is perfect.
For deep gouges, heck it's a story, I dropped my phone on the scale and now it has a Mariana Trench of a scratch - vs - I did nothing and I have all these blemishes - the polishing cloth is your salvation.
