Gx4 Graphene

Has anyone here have any knowledge of the new GX4 from Taurus that has graphene Cerakote on it? It looks interesting and I ordered one. Nobody at the local stores knew it was an option, and the only videos I have found are all in Spanish. I will post when it arrives. I was just wondering if anyone else knew about it.

"Now, the GX4 brings another innovation to the firearms industry as the first self-defense handgun to incorporate graphene technology. Graphene is a unique substance used in materials from automotive to outer space. The GX4 Graphene uses this unique technology to improve durability of both the frame and the finish, while decreasing the need for cleaning and lubrication." From the taurus website

Graphene reminds me of the stuff they tried putting on aftermarket chainsaw pistons. I know its not tgw exact same stuff, but it was for a self lubrication property idea. Hopefully it holds up. I don't think they would "try" on public weapons without alot of testing. Most likely a big winner for future industry options..perhaps the military.
