I have a Greenland paddle which I sanded down and oiled using linseed oil, but I filled in some of the dents and such using wood filler. Are there any paints that would be good for colour matching them? I’ll be paddling in the ocean.

Thanks!

I think maybe I would mix some stain with linseed oil and apply another coat to darken it.

If you were set on paint then maybe try marine touchup paint?
