What type of paint for canvas awning?

[Mr. T]

I need to letter a canvas awning. There is no existing lettering on it now. I have heard latex or One Shot? I would think one shot would soak in and not work to well.
Thanks,
Tracy

I've used oneshot, and double coated it all in the same trip (not drying fully between) and results were good, but I've also used NazDar PX series screenprinting ink, which is for textiles and offers greater flexibility, which is good on an awning

We did a canvas awning a few months ago using vinyl stencil and rolled on
flat latex. I'm doing a covered wagon canvas now using one shot lettering
enamel... takes 2 coates.
