Either SIG's Stix-IT or Coverites's BalsaRite work well, with my nod going
to SIG's product as it's a little stronger.  For this type of application I
thin the Stix-It 1:1 with lacquer thinner.  Most of the iron-on materials
stick to themselves without any additional adhesive so it's only necessary
to brush the thinned mixture on the composite areas you want the covering to
stick too.  Let the Stix-It dry for twenty or thirty minutes and start
covering.

Hope this helps,
