Multimaterial painting - Bottom also gets 'painted'

I have painted some top surfaces in different colors, the rest of the model should be white. In the preview, I see that the bottom of the model also gets painted in those colors, but instead, I want it to be completely white. What can I do about this? 3MF-file can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Umr-4whZOf3s5GHr3HJemwuogzgcFGAo/view?usp=drive_link

Access denied for the link. Easier if you just use the Attach File button under the edit box and upload it here. It has to be zip-compressed before upload though.

I see you deleted the blue color. I also still see the red color on the bottom

Here you go...

RE:

PS: Multicolor printing is much more controllable if you design your objects as multipart objects and just assign a color to each part. A bit more work in CAD but it lets you take control of where the color goes exactly... No tweaking of slicer parameters needed.

I was thinking the same. For a model like this I would design the patterns as separate inserts so I can assign a separate extruder to each

I know this. When I model an object myself, I always do that, but this is an single part STL from printables.com. Instead of first changing the object to a multi-part one, the easiest and fastest way would be to paint it in Prusaslicer and start printing.

If there is no other way to make it work how I want it to, I will change this object into a multi-part one. But first I would like to see if there are some more functionalities/possibilities available through multimaterial painting in Prusaslicer...

Sorry, but the new file is still not the solution for me. It has exactly the same result as I had in the beginning.

Hm, funny, which version of Slicer do you use? On my Mac and Version 2.6.0 it looks like that:

I attached the gcode, so you can view it yourself (and print it if you want...).
