Use good plastisol not cheap ones. I have good results with lurecraft. Heat plastisol in a Pyrex cup in the microwave. The temperature should reach about 325 degrees. Add coloring after you take it out of the microwave. Stir well. Be sure you are wearing heat resistant gloves. Then inject into the mold.

You best use a good thermometer so you KNOW what your plastic temp is. Colors like chartreuse, green chartreuse, fluorescent orange and fluorescent pink are best added to the raw plastic and then cooked. The other colors can go in when the plastic is cooked or hot.
