How would I go about making a colored (white) outer skin with a prepreg carbon fiber base.

I need the colored (white) outer skin because the black carbon fiber will absorb too much heat when traveling at MACH 1-2

The parts (nosecone and perhaps fins) will be used on a 5 meter long liquid fueled bi-propellant (ethanol and liquid oxygen) amateur rocket.
