stainings
Leaving color marks
Stainings are acts or instances of staining—discoloring something with a substance that penetrates the surface, or applying dye or pigment for effect.
The word appears in technical contexts: multiple stainings of the tissue samples, repeated stainings left the wood darker than intended.
Rarely used outside laboratory or craft settings.
