COLOR CHOICE
We usually match the colors of your artwork with the colors of our Standard Color Palette. Shown here are the colors as Instagbo print equivalents so they can be compared in color books. Gobos are manufactured in an entirely different process from print but we believe this is the easiest way to make color references.
We are able to make virtually any color, but we cannot guarantee the exact match of your colors in the resulting projection due to variations in the fixtures and projection surface. The color of a projected image will always vary from the print color as there is only limited control over the projection environment. The resulting projection color is influenced by factors such as ambient light situation, projection surface color and materials, and color temperature of the light bulb.
* Full-color gobo is not limited in this palette

WHY the glass gobo?
A "Gobo" is a stencil or template placed inside or in front of a light source to control the shape of the emitted light. The term "gobo" is an acronym that stands for "GOes Before Optics", describing the location where it needs to be positioned in the light path of a lighting fixture. Gobos can be used for multiple projects; for example they can project breakup patterns to create texture on walls or even project your company logo.
There are two types of gobos: steel and glass.
Here are numerous benefits with glass gobos, one having a long life span. One more benefit of glass is that complicated images can be generated with very excellent quality. One more advantage is glass will certainly not distort or melt when used continuously.
Notice: We recommend all gobos with image size outer diameter 37.5mm to fit in glass gobo.
How do you determine the number of colors for glass gobos?
One - Color: Color + White OR Black
Two - Colors: Color + Color + White or Black background
Three Colors: Color + Color + Color + Black OR Black
Full Colors: Four Colors or more

Quick and accurate
Great experience, I ordered a Gobo that was clear with the letters blocked out. When I installed it in the projector it cast a cone shaped bright area on the ceiling (because of how close my projector is to the ceiling). With very little time remaining until the needed use of the Gobo, I ordered a blacked out Gobo with transparent words. The team understood my needs and time constraints. I received the new Gobo with time to spare - and of excellent quality.

Olufunke S. United StatesGreat.
Yet to use it. The customer service is excellent. In trying to figure out how to use it, I broke the first free gobo and had to reorder a new one. The seller was very responsive and offered quick service. Thanks
