Take a paint stick and some sand paper and block sand it by hand to get all of the waves out. Then skim coat it with some putty to fill in the low spots and pin holes in the other putty. Then block sand it again and you should be ready to prime it. PM me if you have any other questions and i can try to explain it for you.
