Default RE: Is Nitrate dope needed with Super Coverite?

Thanks for the info Jim and others. Jim, did you use Nitrate dope on the fabric before painting? It looks like the Nelson product is painted right onto the fabric without any dope or primer.(I know Nelson is not latex) Is primer not needed for latex?

I guess you can see that I am leaning toward the latex as my paint choice. Any info on using latex on Super Coverite is appreciated.
Yes, I used nitrate dope on the fabric to seal it and to adhere the fabric to the structure underneath. I used 50/50 thinned dope, 2 or 3 coats
