No one has mentioned the construction of the cloth itself. The higher the nylon content of the cloth, the more noticeable the burn marks are.
But there are trade offs. A 70/30 cloth, for example, will show white marks more easily then an 80/20. But the higher nylon content (and other factors such as weave and thread count) will usually give a faster roll and more durability.
The white burn marks are aesthetic. They really dont cause roll offs. Unless it's a spot that takes constant repeated pounding.... such as a well used break spot, or where the head ball of the rack sits. But it depends on the quality of the cloth. After more then a year, my Championship Worsted Ultra has lots of white marks. But it still plays EXCELLENT.
