When painting vertex colors, you are only painting on an individual Instance of the Material and not the actual Material Asset itself. If you want to apply the vertex color data to another instance of the mesh, you can use the functions of the Mesh Paint Toolbar 's Colors tab to copy and paste the data onto another mesh or multiple meshes.
When painting vertex colors, the Instance Color Size field in the Mesh Paint panel displays the number of bytes of memory used by the vertex color data (stored in the map package.) This value reflects the total for all Assets that are currently selected.
