8. Go to the Material Editor, select the Red Bolt material, and drag it to the selected

Material Editor and grab the Wheel White material and drag it to the selected polygons,
assigning the material.
10. In the Named Selection Set list, choose Wheel_Black to select those polygons. Drag the
Wheel_Black material from the Material Editor to the selected polygons.

Loading the MSO Material into the Material Editor
Congratulations! You have created a Multi/Sub-Object material, even though it may not

MSO material.
