Skin-on-Frame: Dacron Coating questions

Don't even have my PVC Sea Tours together yet and the Wife is suggesting a pair of Sea Pups for the kids. I am wondering if I use the uncertified Dacron from Aircraft spruce, What I can use for a sealer. I am way confused after reading Mountains of Posts on this topic. Available locally is great (required) because shipping to Alaska almost HAS to be air, so Haz mat is a huge no go. Anyway, home despot has the minwax PU in satin and gloss available in quarts. Is this a possibility? with the 2.7 ounce dacron will this require Glass as well ? Looking for the easiest and most available way for me to do a SoF that is slightly more traditional that the PVC . Comments?
