Someone with more experience can probably give you more detailed info on the subject. I'm sure you'll do fine when you get to that point.
This is the way I would recommend doing it. Last one I did was done after work, 2 days in a row. I sprayed the white on the first night, late in the evening. The next day I masked off the white as soon as I got home from work, sprayed the second color (indigo blue in my case), unmasked it after it flashed off and then cleared the whole thing. I got the whole thing sprayed and cleared in a 24 hour window. This was on a complete car. I had to work fast to stay inside of the window for clearing the white, but I got it all done and it came out great. I saw a recent picture of the car and after 20 years it still looks great. The owner never leaves it outside at home and takes really good care of it.
