If you spray 1 heavy coat you'll get paint lift. Use a hair dryer to speed up dry time. Back with white to get light colors to pop. When highlight/shade colors I'll do like 7 passes. Anything else just ask.
Doesn't matter if you're a beginner or not. Those paints are all I've ever used in the 20 years I've been painting except when I needed something not available in them like chrome.
