I only have one Aluminum mold, but it works well with it. Maybe someone else will chime on on this as well.

I wish somone else would chime in too. I was worried about using aluminum injection mold because the surface is slick and adding injection pressure I didn't want to push all of the paint to the bottom of the mold. Where is Mike he should know the answer to this......

Sorry for the slow response ...

I honestly have not used it in aluminum molds but suspect the amount of dust the mold will accept will be less making your colors a little less vibrant but they should still hold to the surface and show up in your part.
