John, I think it is epoxy gelcoat!
Sorry about not getting the Jab photos out.  I'll get to it.

Hi Neville,

The "University of Neville" leads us through the fog once again!

So, the white stuff on the Europa fuselage and wings is Expancel and not
gel 
coat? I recall when I asked about it before I bought my kit I was told 
specifically it was gel coat, but only enough was applied to fill the
weave of the 
cloth to alleviate cracking and peeling problems and to ease the filling
and 
sanding process for finish.

If anybody wants to see what gel coat looks like after about 10 years, 
contact me off list. I've got lots of pictures.
