It can be tinted, but its a pretty big uptick in price. You would have the cost of the pail, then the tint adds $194. They have a black and battleship gray that might fit your needs. If you can let us know where you are located I may be able to reccomend a more cost effetive solution.

My contractor applied the EZSeal and it rained shortly after application. I understand the product dries to the touch in about 30 minutes. My question is did the rain effect the durability of the seal.
Not knowing the time frame of when the rain occurred, I can't give a definitive answer. If water beads up on the sealed area, that means the sealer is in place and doing what it is supposed to, so you should be fine.
