Accra-glass is amber colored.....most of the time I add pigment too it for the color I want. I might be overstepping here, but if you're trying to fill a gap, whether it be with solder or accra-glass, it's gona show. When/if this happens to me (any gaps), I either fix it, or build a new guard. It sounds like I'm being picky....but it ends up being a lot less work and effort to fix the gap, or build a whole new guard, rather them fight with trying to "hide" it with solder or glue.....and the associated clean up it requires when you're trying to fill a spot that really shouldn't be there in the first place.
