    I use a bit of Transtint to color epoxy dark. Seems to me it takes a little longer for the epoxy to fully cure.

    I use Sculpt Wood with a black powder from Abatron that works great when you can press it into cracks.
    Right now with the cooler weather it takes a few days to get to full hardness.

    I think he meant to write, "Epoxy might help because my Byrd head doesn't like loose knots," not that epoxy causes loose knots.
