How do I REMOVE "setRGB" once it's been applied?

Question

OK, so if I've set the color of a movie clip to change via AS
on a button press, like so:
var my_color:Color = new Color(my_mc);
my_color.setRGB(0xFF0000);
How do I then get it to revert back to its original state
when I press another button?
The Flash Help files didn't take me past this first step...
Please note that the movie clip in question is is not one
color as such... It's a movie clip containing several objects of
varying colors and shades.
When I DO set it to a color on the first button press, that's
because I want it to be turned into a silhouette type thing. But
then when I press another button, I want it to revert back to it's
original NO-color state which shows off ALL its various colors...
Can I not REMOVE the "setRGB" once it's been applied?

Answer 1

use Color.setTransform():
my_color.setTransform({ra:100,
rb:0,ga:100,gb:0,ba:100,bb:0,aa:100,ab:0});
