Picked up an order from durasurf today and noticed one side is the specified colour the other is white.
Haven't seen this before ('cept in 333's excuse for delam)

At first I thought it was a coating but on closer investigation its part of the plastic.
Any issues or concerns?

What you have is a Wax impregnated base. The specified color is the standard UHMW, with a small amount of wax mixed within the resin. (makes for faster material) The white is a HDPE backing that is co-extruded with the UHMW. You will notice that the white is a little harder than the specified color. If the guys at Crown treated the material correctly there should be no issues. test it for sure.

You have a heck of a product for the $2/meter you most likely spent.
