	that means you have a burnt blue led which is common on heated areas

	It's a common issue with RGB LEDs that don't have a dedicated white diode. I can never get any of my LED (RGB) strips properly white unless I use and RGBw strip. The best you can usually achieve is to bring down the red slider a little and try to balance them better. The LED will be dimmer but get at least a little closer to white. Also, as Gizmic noted, it can also happen when one of the LED diodes is burned/weak. Again though, you can adjust sliders to try and balance it.
