You can use an electric sander. Or sand paper, which has different grades to find the finish you will require. If it's the exterior then you may use as above, but scraping and filling, using a cement based filler for outside is recommended, then seal it with an oil based paint (undercoat) and apply the paint finish you desire. Hope this helps Tyrone Power. Painter and decorator.
