Nope...not mealies. Looks like it might be some old film from a past insect spray. Or, yea, it might just be dust.

Take a damp paper towel w/a little mild soap and wipe it down...should clean it right up. If the film remains you can use a little milk or water diluted lemon juice to wipe the leaves down.
