Any prior discussion about materials in a curve face ?

What is it particularly that you would like to know about materials on a curved surface?

Try this:

1. draw a rectangle as big as the mesh's projection on the red/green plane (the easiest is to use the rectangle tool from one corner to the opposite one)
2. apply your material on this face*
3. Right click > Texture > Project
4. Now sample this projected material with the Alt!Paint bucket tool
5. and apply it on your curved surface.
   The result should look something like this:

*you could even turn on hidden geometry and do this and the following ones on a single facet of your surface but this way you can have control over the orientation of your material better.

Thanks

I got the Idea, and now it works
