Its kinda hard to have an appreciably worthy test onto the panels, with no real machine to measure how slippery the coat is. Looking at the properties of the simple powders black and white are perfectly comparable and the "white graphite" its used instead of the black in many industrial applications, maybe thats the best test we can have. The resistance its more due to the silica so i dont even consider the graphite a critical factor. All in all marginal differences could be so minimal that just the fact that the stuff its white and could be even tinted could offsets all of them. For sure its enough for me since avoiding the black color is what made me look into graphite alternatives in first place.
