I've used Presta Gel Coat compound with a wool pad and a DA sander/polisher. Followed that with 3M Finesse-It 2 Finishing Material using a foam pad and DA.
Last step was Collinite No.845 with a foam pad and DA.
Came out beautiful. Problem is my front caps gel coat is defective as is a lot of darker caps built in the last couple years and all that work quickly disappeared weeks latter. Hey, it was fun while it lasted.
Being that yours is older the gel coat should be fine as far as bringing the shine back and lasting.
