   Lightly use a wire wheel on a drill mate, do it evenly and lightly and should get a flat surface.
   
   Then go over with wet and dry quite a few times until its a decent surface.
   
   Other option is if its not too bad then use filler primer acouple of times and lightly rub between coats, you'll probably need say 4-5 coats of filler primer but should level out.

   Use paint stripper and use a wire wheel on a drill and just skim over the top lightly, should take the paint off and leave an even surface.
