Scrape, sand the area, apply joint compound or spackle (over filling slightly), wait until it dries, apply another coat, sand smooth, prime, paint.

Does Zinzer primer really work for exterior use? I've heard it gets brittle when used as an exterior primer.

I have seen this new paint job where they use a sponge. Can you give me some tips on how this is done?
