Ok,

First, I'll get back to you on the aluminum casing question. I need to check a few things.

I have no idea which one doesn't rust? I guess whichever ones were all aluminum construction?

Berkley was the glossy metallic blue color. At least thats what I've always seen on Berkley-Colotran fixtures.

Personally, I like Dusty Source Four Grey, or Expression Textured White, or my personal favorite, Obsession Metalic Green.

Altman Olive Drab, still a classic though...

Last place I worked that had a lot of S4 Par built some boxes and lined the bottom and sides with foam. With the foam, the dimensions were such that the lenses fit very snugly. IIRC, the height of the box was 2 - 3" higher than the lenses.

Our use is in a venue so I don't have to worry about how to transport lenses. I just kept the boxes the lenses came in & use them for storage. I did re-sort them with like lenses in each box marked with by type, that way I don't have to fumble through four lenses to find the one I need (which would always be on the bottom or next to bottom in the stack).

I'd recommend the biodegradable road cases they came in everyone is going green these days anyway.
