An example: Adding a white rectangle to a color 16 surface:
1. Delete the color 16 surface from the part.
2. Add the white rectangle.
3. Fill in the area around the white rectangle with color 16 quads or
triangles, so that the entire area covered by the original color 16 surface
is covered again.
This process takes a bit longer than just overlaying the original surface
with patterns, but the rendered result (especially in Ldraw) is much better.
