  Is there a way to permanently change the default font color from grey to black?

  Sure. There are a bunch of selectors in the Fresh and Clean theme that set various elements to different gray values. Here’s a list I would use to turn them to black:

  body,
  .entry-content,
  .widget-title,
  .widget-title a,
  #access a,
  #access ul ul a,
  .featured .entry-summary,
  .sticky-label,
  body.single .entry-title,
  body.page .entry-title,
  body.attachment .entry-title,
  .archive-title,
  .entry-meta,
  .featured .more-link a,
  .page-link a,
  #site-info,
  #site-info a {
  	color:#000000;
  }

  Also, a way to change the color when hovering over a link?

  To change the hover color for basic links, use this:

  a:hover {
  	color: hotpink;
  }

  Change the color name to a color code of your choice:

  Note that some elements have more specific rules for hover color, and in those cases you would need to add specific rules to override each one as you find them.
