I wrote to the Prince propeller guy about the effects of rain on his propellers and here is his response. My propeller is about 2 years old.

Mr. Stearns,
As we have been taught in pilot training it is best, even with a metal propeller, to reduce rpm to slow erosion of the propeller. The propeller will have paint wear in moderate or greater rain as with any propeller be it metal or with leading edge protection. We offer a leading edge tape kit to reduce this condition. Your propeller was our older epoxy based material and does work well but continued use at high rpm in moderate or greater rain will shoe wear. Our new material, urethane, is much more durable.
