recolor
Apply new pigment
To recolor is to change the color of something, especially in digital contexts: I recolored the logo to match our new branding.
The term appears frequently in image editing, design software, and video games where players can recolor characters or items.
Outside digital use, recolor applies to dyeing fabric, touching up faded surfaces, or any act of applying new color to something already colored.
