This is where the material has been sanded through during preparation for finishing paint. This flaw can have a significant effect on the part, for example if a section is 10 plies thick and 3 have been sanded through on a corner the area is now at best 70% of it's original designed mechanical properties. This flaw is very common on bikes, sometimes this marble effect is sold as feature, mostly it is painted over, it is less than ideal.
