Jamb painting and two tone

Looking for some advise on best procedure to paint jambs on a two tone red with white roof cab. I have the jambs of cab and doors all prepped. Would it be best to paint the roof of the cab at this time? Or, only do the jambs, re-assemble and then paint roof.
Thanks

Re: Jamb painting and two tone

If you are planning on painting it apart, then the roof first, then cover it and do the rest would be the way to go. Always paint the smallest part first so it's less to cover, right?

If you plan on jambing it and installing the doors before painting the outside, I think doing the whole roof and jambs then installing the doors and covering the roof would be a good idea too.
