Does colored vinyl sound as bad as picture discs?

I tried searching for this, but didn't find an answer.

I know picture discs suffer in terms of AQ; do colored LPs sound worse than regular (black) vinyl as well?

Ditto for a white 45 rpm direct-to-disc recording of Laurinda Almeida. Those certainly laid my fears to rest. I'll take a Classic Records 150g red LP over their 200g black ones any time.
