I have a section of baseboard I want to repaint. It has a lot of
contours (in and out; I don't know the correct nomenclature but its
sorta fancy looking) and I want to sand/scrape it first but ordinary
sandpaper or a putty knife won't do it well. What are practical
choices to sand/scrape the old paint before repainting it? I just
thought of a hand wire brush or perhaps a wire brush (??) that is on
the end of a drill bit but I'd like to know what the pro's would use.

thanks.
