How to save new surfaces on a prop ?

Hello,
I wanted more colours with the European Bike but it only has two surfaces: one for most of the bike, one for the flower in the basket (useful to hide them). I’m in the process of creating more surfaces but I have no idea how to save these new surfaces outside of a scene file: saving a material preset doesn’t work when I’m using it on a newly loaded bike (it doesn’t create the surfaces I created).
What's the recommanded way of saving new surfaces ?

Save the prop with the modified surfaces as a new asset, and use the new asset in your other scene.
It seems simple, thank you
