DIY Solid color paint job w/ aero cans?

[RU36]

Will this work for a solid Basswood body?
aerosol shellac sealer/lacquer  (2 coats)
aerosol White Spray paint (just enough to make the guitar solid white)
aerosol deft brand clear gloss lacquer (several coats)

All I am trying to do is obtain a white gloss finish. Simple
I dont want the clear to yellow as I stack it up and I have heard that the deft has an anti yellow agent in it.
Also I think i screwed up by using minwax clear polyurethane instead of clear lacquer.

I used the same process only I did the clear with minwax clear gloss polyurethane and it sucked.
There was no runs or dist specs in it but it just started to turn yellow as you layered it up.
So I carefully sanded it all back to wood and want to formulate a better plan for this time around.
That's how I learn I guess, the hard way.

The guitar is a solid basswood z body.

What brand white are you using? It's usually best to stick with the same brand throughout. I've used Duplicolor acrylic lacquers with great success. They make a Filler/Primer that you can use along with their Truck, Van, & SUV colors. They also make a clear. I also used Spray Max 2K Urethane clear (on top of Duplicolor acrylic lacquers) after allowing the paint to settle for 2 days with no compatibility issues.

SprayMax is an epoxy that goes over nitro just fine.  Duplicolor is nitro or acryllic lacquer, depending on the use.  They work just fine on guitars.  The Duplicolor clear is fairly hard, but the SprayMax is really hard stuff... cant dig yer fingernails into it... sands to dust.
