Depends on the chemical composition (and stabilizers) of the plastic used in the manufacturing. For example polymers such as UHMV and PET are very resistant, whereas ABS and CPVC are much more susceptible to staining.

I wonder what material the body is made from? Somewhere I read it is a composite, but a composite of what? I'd assume it would be a composite using polycarbonate for durability.

A person could check with earlier white camera owners such as the M and M2, or even white SL1's to see how the finish stands up.  Plus there have been white P&S cameras for quite some time.  And Sony has had a ton of white cameras over the years as well.  We could get some sort of track record.
