One infill color running into another infill color

I have this 4 color part I want to have the colors on top of the black run straight down. As you can see the blue infill runs under the silver and the blue infill runs under the orange. It isn't an issue with the model because if I delete the silver bar everything works as it should. If I model the silver bar as a seperate object and join it to the rest of the object in Slicer, same result.

For whatever reason it wants that blue to bleed under into the orange. How can I fix this? I've adjusted so many settings and searched so much. Hours and Hours.

Does anyone have any ideas? Height range modifier doesn't work, just infills solid instead of infill.

Note: A bigger issue is I need raised text on the orange part and the blue under the orange messes with the text. If I delete the silver bar, the text will be fine because the blue isn't bleeding into the infill of the orange.

I'm not aware of settings you could change to affect that behavior. It's driven by the boundaries of the parts that make up the object. Or if you've used pain-on coloring. then it's a big free-for-all anyway, no idea how that algorithm defines how deep a color goes into the object. 

If you could upload a zip-compressed 3mf project of that model, folks here could take a closer look.

Agreed, we need to see a project file.

Files > Save Project as

Zip the .3mf and post it here. It will contain both your part and your settings for us to diagnose.

Cheerio,

RE:

Right click on the STL, Split to Parts. That did the job for me. As I said, paint-on coloring is unpredictable voodoo, parts carry logic.
