A method includes synthesizing pigment in situ in a porous material and includes impregnating the porous material with a first reactant, and subsequently impregnating the porous material with a second reactant to form the pigment in situ. The method is contrasted with applying a pigment to a material via an external surface of the material, where pigment penetration is limited, and the pigment is not protected from environmental hazards such as ultraviolet light. Forming the pigment within the cells of the porous material provides pigmentation throughout the material and protects the pigment over the life of the product.
