    In order to see multiple colors on a layer you need to first apply a texture. I struggled with this for a while, the following really helped me, there are some really useful techniques and tips here. https://goo.gl/xWZpdg

    One approach might be:

    On a solid layer apply a gradient layer stlyle (gradient overly > colors > edit gradient) and make all the stripes this way.

    I would then experiment with various colors adjusting effects. Colorama can be lots of fun and might be what you are looking for….

    Thanks for the input, this post is a few months old now, but I do still need to get it done so this is still heplful to me!

    I’ll try the layer style route, combined w Colorama. not sure quite how to cycle through the colours, but I need to play with it for a while to see how it works.

    Many Thanks
