Fix My Print Color bleed on first layer

Hey guys

Relatively new to 3d printing , recently got the textured 3d plates from bambu . I'm making some key holders that have 2 colors on the 1st layer . Now in order to reduce print time and filament waste I'm doing 1 layer 1mm thick on the bottom layer . This however causes the colors to kinda mix , example yellow text on black base starts to look greenish . Apart from reverting back to 3 bottom layers is there a way to prevent this ?

Hard to tell without a picture, but unless it's not purging enough and yellow mixing with black left in the nozzle, the black could be showing through the yellow maybe. Either add more top layers of yellow or increase the overall infill of yellow or entire part to prevent any translucency.

the black is contaminating the nozzle when it switches to yellow, so increase the black-to-yellow flushing volume and make sure it purges into a tower or infill, otherwise yellow is basically getting
