Strip: Use of peel ply for glassing

In previous boat-building projects I have used peel ply as a means of obtaining a smooth finish over fiberglass cloth. The fabric flattens out the resin and prevents slump on sloping surfaces. I don't see any reference to it in the archives, except in assocation with vacuum bagging. Is anyone using it in non-vacuum glassing applications?
