Welcome to the forums!
Pics could help verify what you have on the walls - http://www.doityourself.com/forum/el...-pictures.html
I assume it's texture. While texture sands well the latex paint that goes over it doesn't. More than likely you'll need to skim coat the walls with joint compound.

FYI, Spackel is for filling small holes. Like repairing nail holes in a wall.
Drywall compound is what's used to texture, or paint mixed with sand.
There's dozens of differant ways and types of texturing walls and ceiling, that's why a picture would help.
