Not truly stainable

Not truly stainable
Easy to work with, apply and sand. Unfortunately, this product is not truly stainable. I applied this to screw holes in our new porch flooring to fill them before staining. After I applied the stain and allowed it to dry for 48 hrs, the wood filler is showing through almost as if it wasn’t stained at all. I’m really disappointed.
