I have used a powder stain from Mohawk. Blendal Stain in various wood
shades. You can mix it with the resin before you add the hardener. It is
still noticeable but better than plain epoxy.

Hello--

Does any know how to color epoxy, when being used in sound board repair, so
that it matches the rest of the wood?  The way that I've seen recent repairs
using epoxy, the former cracks are solidly repaired-- BUT stand out like a
SORE THUMB because the epoxy dries in a much darker color.  Any one have a
suggestion?

Thanks!
