could you dye your disc when the dye is at room temp?, will it just take longer or will it not turn out?

When I do a bottom dye, I heat up a pan of just plain water and keep that warm and float the disc in it, then spoon in warm dyes, my dye times are about equivalent this way.
When working with paste, mine seem to take forever. Would this idea also help speed up that process, just float the disc top-side up?
I'd imagine it would although I've never dyed with paste. The heat does help the dye take to the plastic, so I'd imagine the additional heat would help speed up your process. I've heard of people baking at very low temperatures in an over, around 120-130, but never tried that either though. I'd imagine if you could find a way to heat your paste up initially that would also help.
Any advice for painting with dye? ei, what kind of dye should I use (or mixture) and how do i get it to set?
I've tried dying a scarlet red disc before with a yellow rit, but had no luck whatsoever. the yellow just didn't want to take; is there a way to do a lighter color of dye, on the darker color disc?
Any Idea how I could do the sunburst?
