Have you used this sealer for the primary seal coat of your boat, and what are it's characteristics? Thin? Drying time? Workability?

I'm doing some work on an "8-Ball" ( Glen-L, fishing dingy ) for my brother and will be coating the hull parts. Is it ready to use out of the can, or need mixing, and how does it adhere to the later fibreglass coats? How does it compare to mixing the epoxy and squeegying it on? Any info will be appreciated. Thanks
