: I've been using this in lieu of thickened epoxy on a number of
: projects, and it occurred to me that is might also be useful as
: a skin coating. So I tried it, on a test scrap. What is it? It's
: PL Premium Polyurethane Construction Adhesive.

Very interesting! FWIW, a couple of years ago I had some leftover black 3M 5200 (which I think is a somewhat similar product) so I spread a thin layer on top of a Valley hatch cover that was showing a lot of small cracks. Two years later the 5200 still looks good. It's still flexible and no signs of cracking or delaminating.
