Because the liquid is introduced into the accumulator, there is a small measure of protection. However, I would invert the can periodically for very short periods of time to make sure the dye is introduced. If you notice any change in compressor noise when doing so, stop and charge with gas. The instructions to use dye probably are for the purpose of getting the dye into the system. It probably won't leave the can in gas form.
