question about using finings in beer

[MostlyHarmless]

I'm getting back into brewing beer again. When I did it years ago, I always used bottles but now I think I'll be going down the keg route. However I have a question which I hope you can help me with - apologies if it's a stupid one, but that's the sort of question that I specialise in.

I'm thinking about using finings to help clear the beer, and I have some Richie's general purpose wine/beer finings which I've used in wines with good results, achieving clarity in 3 or 4 days. However, I'm not sure about how these will work when making beer.

I was thinking that the process will be...

1 - Primary fermentation in a brew bin
2 - Syphon off into a keg
3 - Add some priming sugar
4 - Add some finings
5 - Seal the keg and wait for secondary fermentation to complete and for the brew to go clear.

My question is, will the secondary fermentation ferment out all of the sugar and prime the keg properly if I'm using finins? I'm worried that all the yeast will be lying dormant at the bottom of the keg instead of processing any sugar.

Help!

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Dissolve 2 oz gelatine it pre boiled water add this to your beer a couple of days before bottling. It will be nice and clear a few days later
