I have a Bass boat that the fiberglass finish is very highly oxidized from
the sun. I am wanting to restore this boats finish to hopefully approach
what it was before. Any suggestions as to the best items to use to
accomplish this? Very fine sandpaper or steel wool? What chemicals?

Thanks in advance.

Before going the sandpaper route have you tried starting with a rubbing
compound applied with a buffer and sponge pad? That may do the trick.

You would then follow it with a good polish such as Finesse-It II (3M) also
applied by buffer and sponge pad, and lastly a good fiberglass wax (I
recommend Collinite Paste Fleet Wax).

Note that there are different grades of foam pads, with pads specifically
designed for the application of rubbing compound and polish.
