I know West System sells pigments for their epoxy. Here's a snippet from their website:
Color Pigments WEST SYSTEM pigments are epoxy-based pastes that can be used to tint the epoxy mixture to provide a base color for the final finish system. The colored surfaces also tend to highlight flaws and imperfections. Cured, pigmented epoxy surfaces are not a final finish surface, but require enamel or polyurethane paint systems to provide ultraviolet protection. Add to the mixed resin/hardener at a rate of approximately one teaspoon of pigment to 8 fl. oz. of epoxy approximately 6 oz. of pigment per B group). More pigment will increase opaqueness and mixture viscosity. 501 White Pigment. 503 Gray Pigment.
