In this quick update, I explain why the release of Picture Perfect Polish is taking longer than expected. The short version: we ran into a raw material shortage (specifically the aluminum oxide blend we use), and I’m also taking extra time to finalize the two custom pads that will complete the system. Originally, I estimated a 6–8 week timeline — but due to these delays, it’s now looking like another 6–8 weeks before we can start shipping. I’m doing everything I can to make sure the final product is absolutely perfect and worth the wait. Thanks again for all the support and patience — it truly means a lot!
