A couple weeks ago I made out of aged cherry a table with tapered legs. On the face of one leg was a resin pocket. Before wiping on tung oil, I decided to fill the hole with epoxy tinted black. I had seen this done on This Old House for defects in mesquite. I used the only epoxy on hand, Minwax, and mixed in black fresca powder. The epoxy was a glossy jet black, and when cured the surface retained the glossy jet black color. When I began carving away the excess however I found that the interior had turned a medium grey.
Does anyone have a successful experience tinting epoxy, where the cured interior color remained the same as the uncured color? If so, what brand of epoxy and what coloring medium? Thanks.
