Smilan, I'm glad you found out about the non-compatibility of nitrate dope before applying it over the primed surfaces!! Having used iron on films extensively, I would suggest you give Oracover (aka Ultracote) a try instead of Monokote, as it is much much easier to use, especially around compound curves that'll be found on the fuselage. Monokote does still have its diehard fans, but in my experience, its only advantage over the easier to apply Oracove, is that it produces a glossier finish.
