I'm about to paint some fascia board and drip edge. The drip edge is
in very good shape, no chipped paint, or peeling.

Is there something I can wipe it down with that will clean it and
ready it for paint?

Or, should I "scuff" it lightly with a fine sand paper first?

12 year old latex paint.

Thanks.

Are you painting over galvanized or over the 12 year old paint?

Don't scuff the galvanize coating or you can damage it. If you are going
over paint, clean, sand if needed, paint. Depending on condition, a primer
can help. If using a color, have the primer tinted too.
