What types of paints are you using? There are tricks with cheaper paints, but even with good hobby paints, using a grey is always easier than white. The coverage will be more even and less transparent. Easier to freehand.

It is easier to paint on the light grey first, then use white to highlight or to overpaint most of the center. If you miss a little with your white it won’t be noticeable.
