    Thanks for the advice ozzbike. I presume you just do the headstock with careful taping of everything else?

    Think bigger picture with aerosol cans.....trying to tape up close and personal is really hard. For headstock decals I mask off the whole fingerboard....then the neck from where the flat of the headstock meets it. I also run a strip up each edge of the headstock from the nut area to the first corner.

    I go at least halfway down the back of the neck in the first photo with the tape.....but not all the way.

    When you wet sand the line you spray in the first photo at the back of the headstock will easily fade into the neck.
