I've applied the PLP to two kayaks so far. Spread it thin (really thin, just enough to cover the weave and no more, otherwise it bubbles a bit) over the fabric. It's not UV resistant, so you'll be wanting to paint over it with something that is.

I first heard about it via a thread of Dave Gentry's. Bit of good reading there: http://www.kayakforum.com/cgi-bin/Building/index.cgi/page/1/md/read/id/198348/sbj/skin-on-frame-new-skin-coating/
