Anything I can do about abused woodwork?

[Arthur E.]

I bought a 4 family that's been abused for a number of years.  None of the woodwork has been painted over (yaaaay), but it looks like someone took a screwdriver to it in many places.  There's also a problem with previous painters being sloppy and getting paint on the woodwork.  Is there anything I can do about this or do I need to rip it out and replace?

Dampen a rag with paint thinner to get the paint spots off. You could sand by hand and then varnish/seal after that. If that's too much work it might be best to just replace them.
