The front sill had to be filled with concrete. The sills are cement concrete and have been painted before white. Regarding the windows I always thought that it was important to get the paint right into the edges especially on outside woodwork thus I just slap it on get it right in there and then use a knife blade scraper once it is dry to chip off the paint.
Surprisingly if you use proper external paint like Sandtex it will dry quite quick even. In the past I have cleaned up existing stonework sills using an angle grinder with abrasive disc - you will find stone masons do this as well. The best exterior paint be it latex- or oil-based forms a durable bond on trim siding or decksoffering protection and a fresh look.
To remove the spin marks left by the disc you can use a carborundum stone in one direction to do this. Im no expert but on my concrete sills I just painted them with exterior paint a few times they seem to be selaed ok and have have been fine. PVC needs specialist paint otherwise it will peel and blister.
The same can be said for masonry paint in some circumstances though However when it comes to sills and the like gloss is popular choice and if I come across problematic situations like you are describing I will remove as much paint as possible before applying a coat of Zinsser BullsEye 1-2-3 and then applying a good quality exterior gloss. While interior window sills tend to be wooden most outdoor ones are made of concrete or stone and we offer specific products for the best results on different surfaces.
