Repairing ripped canvas?

Hi-

Got a rip in the canvas of my skin-on-frame Greenland yesterday.
I was lazy putting it on the truck, and it suffered a 4" gash.

Is there any adhesive-hopefully epoxy-that will stick to canvas that has been painted with linseed oil/porch paint? I can glue a patch on after sewing.

Thanks in advance for any help!
