How do I repair a fiberglass paddle?

I received a Prijon Bora paddle as a gift. It's in good condition but the fibers started to shed or peel from the handle and cause iritation on my hands. The shaft is made from 100% fibreglass.

I wrote an email to the manufacturer on how to repair it and they said to sand it down with fleece and apply a thin layer of epoxy resin.

Can someone explain me in more detail what sanding fleece to buy and which epoxy resin should I apply?
