Looking for suggestion on a glue or a material that would add color to, and fill cracks in bowls. Still learning to turn and dry bowls the proper way.
Thanks

I either use instant coffee for a contrast or I save the sanding dust to mix with the epoxy.

I'll agree, epoxy mixed with coffee grounds look like a small bark inclusion, which is a pleasing effect. It also turns well. For small cracks, you can drip some thin or medium CA glue in them if you catch them early enough. But remember, if the wood is still green, they will most definitley come back.
