Choosing the Right Gel
With nearly 500 colors available, selecting the right gel can be overwhelming. Our team uses these products daily and can help you narrow down your choices based on your fixtures, your application (theatrical, architectural, event, or film), and your desired color effect. If you’re transitioning from incandescent to LED fixtures, we can advise which gel colors are still necessary and which can be achieved with the LED’s built-in color mixing.
