Alternatives to Whink for de anodizing

I have a blue anodized titanium scale for my Firetac that I would like to de anodize. After looking for info online, the only product that seems to be efficient without harming the steel is Whink. Unfortunately, this product is unavailable where I live (France).

Do you guys know any proven alternative to Whink ?
 
Thanks for the quick answer J. Doyle. Shall I look for a specific type of product ? They seem to have a lot of them and I am afraid that something like their power cream could affect the stonewashed finish of my titanium scale.
 
I just used the original powder. I think I mixed it with dish soap on a toothbrush. It's been awhile.

I use whink now.
 
Just tried powdered BKF and a light scrubing on my titanium scale. It didn't work at all. The blue anodization is as vivid as before. I wonder what I did wrong...
