RhythmDoctor will become famous soon enough
To start to answer my own question, first place I looked is my latest issue of Practical Sailor. Looks like WM Bottomshield (Unepoxy LD) is a hard (nonablative) paint and got a "Fair" rating. However, that is listed as a "new" proeuct, and this paint is at least 2 years old. If anyone can spoon-feed me a link to a review of a prior version of this paint that would be great. Meanwhile, I'll continue to search myself.
