Multicolor Painting Slicing With Errors

Painted a piece with several colors

 Painted object

and when slicing the object the colors are being messed up on some layers.

I've repainted it in new projects with same results in Prusaslicer 2.7 and 2.7.1

Anyone else see this behavior?

RE: Multicolor Painting Slicing With Errors

It's usually a model issue that you'd have to fix in CAD.

Sometimes it's because you miss a tiny triangle or two when painting and for some reason that missed triangle's different color explodes over the whole layer.

I have also seen this type of issue 'randomly' popup between versions of PS but I'm not programmer enough to know why. I particularly remember this issue happening to me between PS 2.4.0 vs 2.4.2-rc2, but nothing came of it. If you slice the file I uploaded in 2.7.1 it still happens, so they never got around to fixing whatever causes that. So if the first two things don't work out, you could try slicing in older versions of PS.

Thanks for the reply, it was very helpful. Couldn't fix the model, but not painting a couple surfaces solved the problem. Not exactly how I wanted it to look, but close enough.
