Hi Vince
Can you get your hands on a vacuum pump. If you pour the
stuff in a vacuum and then release it to air, you shouldn't
have any bubbles. What material are you using for the
plastic. Some of these things can handle a vacuum while
others can't. Even using a hand pump made from a bicycle
pump can do wonders at removing bubbles.
How about a list of the materials you use for molds,
colors and plastic?

I guess you have two kinds of bubbles 1) Trapped air 2) Voids in the
filling.
I vacumm pump may be $$, but a reversed air compressior pump or other hacked
pump may work since I don't think you need a strong vacumm.
