Here is a thread where we went thru this topic on a paint forum. The pros gave me some pointers. Like you I want the stripes on top. Here is a mock-up I did and think it will work out good on my car. Single stage white over bc/cc. I used Utech 350 for the white. It covered well without having to layer it on thick.

I grappled with this on my 67 Z. Jerry M has posted on other forums the stripes should always be single stage then lightly sanded to take any sharp edge off. The painter where I had my car done was not too enthused when I specified what I wanted. He wanted to clear over the stripes and showed me a second gen Z they had done. I didn't like the look. In the end, he did single stage for me but refused to sand them as he claimed the paint rep told him to not do it. I asked why but never got a reason. The stripes came out great and our guy who will do final cut and buff said he'll take care of it.
