I own a very old house and apparently previous owners didn't bother to scrape too much old paint off before a fresh coat was added. As a result, there's that uneven, crumbling look.
I just started using a heat gun and scraper but it still comes out uneven and scratchy looking wood in some places.
I'm thinking maybe I should finish off with a sander to smooth it out. I've got a small Black and Decker sander, but it doesn't seem to do the job.
Could anyone recommend perhaps a bigger, more powerful sander that I might want to try? And what level sandpaper should I use?
Thanks.
