Is a 360 pop shuvit supposed to be a hard trick?

It all depends on what you're used to. I found them to be relatively easy because I learned 360 flips first and learned how to rotate it with my back foot. Try keeping your back foot towards the center of the tail, not near either edges or the concave to prevent it from flipping. But no, many people find this to be easy but I could see how it can also trouble many people. Try watching a few trickipedia's and watching their back foot motion and practice that. Good luck!

How do you color your Tech Deck grip tape?

The truth is that you can't really color your tech deck griptape. Unless you do it with a marker or something. The only way to color the griptape is by taking it off a real skateboard. Or you could buy a grip tape on, griptape is sold in lots of different colors and patterns, best of all, it ready to use. Plus the grips are made from the same grip tape material used on larger skateboards giving you a better grip on your tech decks.
