I used it on my igdllossuit folder, over polyester from Tacoma Tent and Awning. It makes a nice flexible skin, but has one problem. It is porous! It works for short trips, but anything longer than an hour and you will have a kayak full of water. I have tried recoating, and it still leaks. I sold the kayak to a friend, and she recoated it, and it still leaks. There are much better coatings out there.
