Coloring Contour plots

I have a contour plot in 3D that I want to fill in, so I can use contourslice to display it and chose the number of contour lines, but there are still gaps in the plot, space that I want to fill in. I have my colormap set and caxis set so the corresponding data in the array is assigned the color I want. Increasing the linewidth helps it fill in but it distorts the rest of the plot and doesn't fill in all the gaps.
So I have the lines:

isochrone = contourslice(v1,[],[],[100],125);
set(isochrone,'LineWidth',2);
colormap(colors);
caxis([0 150]);

I want a command like contourf for my data, but it doesn't allow you to display a colormap for the data points, its automatically set by Matlab. Is there some command that I can generate a contour plot with and have the lines filled in, or do some interpolation with my data and have matlab fill in the color between contour lines. Thanks for your help.
