Gres,
The only way I have found to do that accurately (pardon the pun) is to put the colored line on first, fill the reel with the backing, unload the reel to a empty spool (use a variable speed a drill with an all-thead to hold the spool), transfer the line to another spool (this switches the ends that are loaded first) and finally crank the line back on the reel. Just make sure you keep some tension on the line while doing all the transfers.
