Microballoons are very tiny little glass spheres that you mix with epoxy to get a more paste-like epoxy mix. They are used as gap-filler, for making fillets and to lighten a given amount of epoxy that would be applied (sometimes used for park flyers or indoor flyers). I don't know how you would order them, but Tower Hobbies <http://www.towerhobbies.com> has several different brands of microballons. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
