Steve, If the color band is not a sticker, it will be gel-coat.
Here's a couple thoughts:
If it can not be restored, you can check to see if FW still has the matching gel coat and an experienced fiberglass shop would be able to spray it on and properly finish it (if FW does not have it, check the places that we recently noted in another thread on repairing a gel coat scratch). Other options woul dbe to have a paint mixed to match the color and have that sprayed on (Imron or something similar).
