NextDesign, I appreciate your help.

I checked every component of my object and they were all Lamberts. So then I realized I may have combined those objects with a rogue material type a while back...

And ideas?

Thanks for all the feedback everyone -

But yes, it is a single object. I selected all faces on this object and assigned a new material.

I then selected several large groups of faces and UV...

Hahaha it's OK.

My main goal is to group ALL of my UV projections onto the one area on the top-right in the UV editor so I can paint over all of them at once with one UV snapshot, instead of...
