I'm not sure what the tech sheets for Nason say, but with PPG OMNI, tape time is like 40 minutes. Personally, I would base the white, wait however long it tells you to wait to tape it off, base the other color, pull the tape off, wait until the last color has flashed off, and then go in and clear it. Otherwise if you base and clear the white, you have to wait until the clear has cured, then tape it off and sand/scuff right up to your tape in order for the next coating you put on it to adhere. The second way will give you a line that you can feel, too. With a little sanding and buffing, you'll never be able to feel a line where the colors meet doing it the first way. Just my two cents.
