Hi...I have used an epoxy in the past that dried clear, but over time it turned yellow and made the repair obvious. Can't recall the type , but I bought it in a pint can in a craft shop.
So, read the labelling carefully to see if it makes any note of this "color change."

hi rick and whiskeyman, thanks for the information. does expoxy dry quick? i have not work with it before, i have used grazy glue and have had it stuck to my fingers. thanks for the advise, rhona

RHONA...epoxy is slow in drying...depending upon how thick the repair is and (believe it or not) the amount of humidity in the air
. It's a bit easier to get off yer skin than crazy glue too.[]

oops...also depends upon how much hardener you mixed in...
