Hi, in your CAD file change by colors what do you want to apply different materials, don't use the same color for 2 different material, then when you import for revit go to Settings-Materials and you have there several materials like this: "Render ###,###,###" and so one, this is the colors of that "Block" then change those "Render ###,###,###" for the materials you want...

I'm not sure what you mean.  You can't add materials to a dwg block.  It does not ussually make sense to explode a dwg in a Revit project although this is posible.  Please confirm what you are trying to achieve.
