I've heard there is a product called Penetrol avalible at boating stores
that has a reputation for restoring fiberglass gell coat - but there are
a number of ancedental reports that this product does more harm than
good in the long-term.
Lots of people make fiberglass restoration products.

Look for boat fiberglass restoration and you will see quite a few products.
