Disclaimer: I've only done 4 covering jobs.

Three were with Monokote. The first job was a nightmare, and I learned a lot from my errors. The second and third jobs, also monokote, turned out much better, but I still learned a few lessons.

My most recent job used Sigs Aerocoat. I found the Aerocoat shrank much easier than monokote, but it didn't adhere nearly as well, particularly the transparent stuff. I did find the Aerocoat adhered very well to itself, so it was advantageous to cover the entire wing, and then shrink the covereing to prevent the transparent covering from pulling away from its anchor points. I also thought the Aerocoat was much easier to get formed around complex curves.

I do like the strength of the Monocoat. Since the Aerocoat job was a glider, I'm going to try it out. If the Aerocoat turns out to be to easy to puncture, then I'll strip it and replace it with Monokote.
