You can never say without seeing the composition and condition of the materials, but I would advise to use traditional materials where possible as many modern materials seal built fabric that needs to breath. If this occurs moisture and or condensation could be become trapped giving temporary respite but it could then exacerbate the situation significantly over the medium to long term.
