I havent used it but a guy I know that owns a upholstery shop said it works very well . He sprayed it in his truck just to see how it worked and its been in there for almost 3 yrs now and still looks good .

Update and more pics
I completely tore out that front deck. Stringer is rotten to about a foot behind it, the flaotation foam under the back deck is rotten and I have not dug back as far as possible but the bad parts are like a sponge that holds water. I'm going to dig out as much as possible as and squirt more foan in there and go with it for this summer, maybe rebuild the whole thing next year.
Updated photos:

Ugly spot where motor has worn into fiberglass and previous owner goobed up around the drain with silicone:
Spot where motor mount wore into fiberglass in back:
Cracked motor mount:

I am off I-20 not far from ALA and I am very good with fiberglass and paint.
I have worked in and owned a body shop for a long time until last year I sold my shop.
If you need any help I can fix it for you or show you how.
you supply the materials/beer and we can get it done no problem.

Maybe a stupid question... I noticed this on my trimate... What are those triangle pieces of fiberglass?
Nice snag! A little time and effort and you can have this thing in great shape.

I hope it's already done since the thread is 4 years old.
I was talking about this thread... a little time and effort and we can restore it... yeah that's what I meant.
Old thing has been sitting in a barn for quite a while. I'm pulling it out tomorrow to revisit the project. I'm going to rebuild that front deck and clean it up as much as possible and carry it somewhere to get an opinion on what ti will take to get her lake worthy, then either sell it or get it running.
