: Its kinda hard to have an appreciably worthy test onto the panels, with no
: real machine to measure how slippery the coat is.

I'm more concerned with longevity than how slippery the surface is. I'm looking to see how the coatings compare after some harsh abuse. Abuse this boat I'm building this spring will be bound to encounter. I know that the epoxy/graphite coatings are durable. Too bad it's black. The epoxy/hBN mixture looks very promising on paper. Is it too good to be true? Between the three of us we should have some idea by this summer after test panel and real world trials. Now if it were only clear....... =D
