Weird discolouration of carbon frame

Edited see comments below

This is from the BMC website. Cut-and-paste for reference.

BMC’s frames are made mostly using UD carbon fibre. UD stands for unidirectional. Unlike more traditional carbon fibre products that use a woven carbon finish (criss-crossed finish like a woven piece of material), UD carbon is literally a piece of carbon material with the filaments all running in one direction. BMC’s frames are made from many different pieces of UD carbon that are woven together, similar to what is done in textile production. Some of our frames contain around 350 individual pieces of carbon fibre that go into the mould before heating and curing takes place. These material sheets - some very small, some very large - are laid at different angles across each other to achieve different results: torsional strength, compliance areas, rigidity, and so on. The layup of these sheets is extremely important to the end result. This is actually the art of building a carbon fibre frame.

On our unpainted frames, you can see the result of these carbon fibre sheets overlapping each other through the clear coat covering the frame. We are actually very proud to be able to show this real effect on our frames. It shows not only the true workmanship of the frame, but also the resulting quality as the frame exits our moulds. Many bike manufacturers prefer to paint their frames because there are often many imperfections in the finish that need to be re-worked using a filler before waiting for it to dry, sanding it, and then giving it a final paint job (a bit like a panel shop). This is a cheaper way to finish the frames, ensures you have no reject quantity, and allows you to use less stringent production techniques.

On unpainted BMC frames, when you look 'into' the frame, you see the actual quality of what’s on the inside – we are showing you our finish and quality and we are very proud of that.

I just bought a gf01 frame and on first inspection, it doesn't look like that, so I don't think it's supposed to be like that. Having said that, it looks mostly cosmetic that speaks more to the lack of care from the previous owners than to anything specifically wrong with the frame.

I have the identical bike and in sunlight I see the identical shimmering carbon sheets under the clear lacquer. It's perfectly normal. I love the copy and past above form the BMC website. It's just so Swiss. Perfection. Which is why I love my BMC GF01. SOOO COMFORTABLE and reliable and superb handling.
