Hello Pocho:

Although I have never used coverall I would say after. I cannot see why you can't do it after covering. Just go slow and carefull. I believe the dope will be a little brittle and want to crack or flake off right around where you cut your slots. You may have to do a little touch up. I hope all turns out well for you.
