Keep in mind that you need to match to the color that the wood will be after it darkens from the wet out, rather than the colour that it is now. This means that your filler needs to be darker than the cedar is now.

: prior to sanding/epoxy. I suppose there are many ways to try and color
: match the wood. My wood is a medium shade western red cedar. Any tips on
: which couple of colors to start with for mixing? Maybe start with some
: brown, red and white? I think the filler I have is white to begin with, so
: maybe a brown and red will get me a shade that works? Maybe I should grab
: some black too?
: yeah, I know... it ain't a kayak.
: cheers
