sand it down by hand or machine. then paint by brush, roller , spray.
Probs use something that can take weather and get a glossy one because gloss looks very nice.

your way overthinking it, sand back the scratches. then hit it with some glossy spraypaint. done.

Alrighty.... A water based paint is always a good starter. And a primer also to make the paint hold better when it hits.
1) You wand to sand it down really good. Not so hard that you burn through a few layers of ply, but enough to get the remaining artwork and scratches out.
2) Apply the primer to the board. Whatever the tin recommends and make sure you let it dry for the advised time. Usually a light sand in between the two coats of primer.
3) Apply the main colour. At least 2 coats. 3 for a good finish and a solid hold.
NOTE: Paint is best applied with a roller because it is more economical on paint and covers a lot more area. Maybe even a light sand on the first coat of colour also.
4) Then go out and SHRED!!!!
