That's probably normal Dave. As John said, probably high humidity air
trapped inside and it condensed as the temp fell.
The first surface to cool to dew point would be metal, not a fibreglass
wall. That's why I get rust show on my lathe chuck/bed etc in the shed
and why you get droplets form under a metal verandah sheeting on a dewy
night.
