What's with white stains on new vinyl?

I've been noticing that on a fair amount of new LPs there are white streaks/stains near the outside of the LP (typically over the first track or two).

They don't clean off and are sometimes audible, sometimes not.

Anyone else notice these and/or know what they're from?

Dear Madfloyd: I have some LPs with that " trouble ", the last one Hugh Masekela one. In none of those LPs that " trouble " interfere with the quality performance and that's why I never ask or send it back to my LP's source.

Now, if like you posted " are sometimes audible " then my advise is that you ask fo send it back.

Regards and enjoy the music.
Raul.
