Colored in letters on top of this sheriff’s badge I made for my kids birthday, but when slicing it adds the black super deep into the model and it makes it shine through the yellow. I’ve adjusted the “Top paint penetration layers” setting to 1 and it still does it. Anyone know how to fix this? I’ve had this happen on a few prints over the years and have never figured out a way to fix it. I only want it to print the color where it is shown and not below.

Try switching between arachne and classic wall generation.
No dice. Still does the same thing, or similar enough that I can’t tell the difference.
Can you upload the .3mf file?
This is a quirk in Bambu Studio’s paint function — which is why I never use it. To keep the colors only where one wants them requires the model to be modeled so that each color is contained within a separate body within the model. Then select the colors by assigning filaments to the bodies. (Instead of using the paint function.)

I agree with this!
I have never had much luck or trust in painting the models. I also find painted on colours frustrating to change the colours or filaments if I change my mind after the fact. When you have a model broken into parts it is so much easier to select the part in the side panel and change the filament.
If I was printing this for my personal use, I would be tempted to see if I could just print this in two parts. I don’t know how well that would work at this size though (I have made a few things, but not things with text as the separate part yet). Also I have to admit if I am giving something to a small person who might drop it having a print as a single piece might survive a bit longer.
