: The thing is there aren't really that many flat surfaces on a kayak and if

Depends on what you're building. Any surface made from plywood, peelply can be used, it's just polyester cloth afterall. Not many uses on a stripper but for S&G it could be useful. There was a method someone had awile back of using something like mylar film that was supposed to give a very smooth coating on flat surfaces that may be better than using peelply if anyone has a link.
