I've got a PRS-style twin HB guitar that is a strange colour. It's like a milky white with a pinky-lilac hue to it and semi-transparent as you can just make out a quilted-maple pattern beneath. It looks like perhaps it was supposed to be a proper quilted maple top but was maybe flawed so they decided to hide it with paint.
Either way, it has a rosewood fingerboard and no binding. The back of the neck is painted as per the body.
I want to redo it all in a solid colour - white or yellow or dayglow green, but I don't know how to tackle the neck. Specifically, the join where it meets the edge of the fingerboard.
I'm a fussy sod when it comes to the feel of a neck in my hands, so any ridge on that join would drive me nuts.
How do you paint a neck?

I knock down ridges, it's a bit of a chicken game because go too far and you wipe out or chip the ridge. Fine abrasive pad or fine sandpaper. Polish back up if solid colour, leave if it clearcoating over.
Can help to pull tape asap after paint to make the edge soften over.
