Skin-on-Frame: Glidden Porch and Floor Oil-Gloss?

I have just finished skinning my boat, and I went to Home Depot last night to pick up the paint. I had decided to go with an oil based exterior. I could only find water based and latex, so I asked the paint guy for help. I told him I wanted an oil-based exterior paint. He gave me Glidden Porch and Floor Oil-Gloss Interior and Exterior Paint.

This is a polyurethane oil-based paint. It says it is very hard and wear resistant. Will this be usable on my kayak (polyester skin)?
