Fred,

I used it.  It goes on the entire airframe after a very light scuff sanding to
perfect the initial bond to the surface.  It helps the final surface coat to 
adhere,
especially if you are using other Poly-Fiber products.  I don't remember
how many gallons were required for the first three coats.  That first coat that
goes on by roller goes on pretty thick.  And after the sanding, you'll be
applying more in any case.  And sanding more and applying more  And when you 
finally
get it super slick and you are totally sick of sanding, you paint or have
it painted.
