New to Auto: trapping top white?

Sweet. Good stuff. I like the logic.

Expert level attached image: now what?

If the shirt is light enough, why not:
black
underlay white (mid-high mesh)
highlight white (low-mid mesh)
flash
(rest)
red

If you've got the right white on the highlight, probably one with mild puff, it seems like this could work. (Well, right ink, mesh selection, and squeegee settings.) Assumes you've guttered as Colin described. I'm not claiming to be an expert, though, so anyone is free to explain why this might not be best. (The one potential problem I see is that you might overflash your base white trying to keep highlight from being too tacky.)

THANKS board (well Doug S and jvanick specifically).

Process made sense. Art took a little longer to set up and think through, but totally worth it. We ran a job one time round that we couldn't have done otherwise.
600 shirts 5 screens.
Black
UB White (small gutter where meets black)
*flash*
Top Navy
Top White (small gutter where meets Navy details)
Top Gold

Took 270 minutes of print time. Roughly half the prints are (for us) pretty damn spot on, great detail, smoothness and opacity. Half are a bit fuzzy between the wet-on-wet top navy and top white details. Some of that was set-in time (just that the w-o-w tends to take a little time to complete it's offset on each next screen) and more was slightly askew top white screen (whoops).

pics, finished print and what it looked like after the flash before the w-o-w prints.
