All of them have their good points and bad.  I have used monocote with 
success but when painting I prefer coverite.  The last batch I bought was 
almost clear with a definite fabric texture.  On an older ship it looks like 
canvas and with a couple of extra coats it looks like metal.  What are you 
building.  If you want to dress it up with multicoloured coverings you need a 
smooth surface.
For paint I am still using Autofinishes.  They are very expensive and not 
very forgioving when you crack a finished Job, but for me its easy to get 
them and I have a multitude of hobbies that require paint.
