hide polygones to paint others (c4d v:20)

hello I am using cinema 4D version 20. and
bodypaint to be more specific, and using paint brushes.
but if I have a polygon in the middle and I disappear it (hide)
Likewise, he always paints the polygon he hid for me, and not the one I want to paint behind it.
How can I tell the cinema that I need to paint the polygon behind and not the hidden one.
in the attached photo, I need to paint the polygon in green
and no, the red polygons.

Thank you
thousand blessings.

Seems that hidden polygons aren't hidden as well...maybe a limitation of the command hide polygon system

As said, Cinema4D doesn't have any chance to paint on unhidden poly...
I'm sorry...

Hide polygons from select menu (hide selected).
attention not the UV polygons but the real polygons ...

Ok now everything is clearer.
Disable the projection painting tool, because it works on the camera projection. If you use the project on hidden polygons option (in the Tools menu) this allows you to paint the hidden surfaces but, it also paints the back faces

Edit: "because it works on the UV projection."
