Craig - as you have a 4.5" refletor it may be you do not gather enough light to use all of the colored filters effectively, especially the dark red.

I don'tthink many use colored filters a great deal, but specialty filters that enhance particular wavelengths to enhance nebula or certain emission targets - like the baader moon & skyglow, which i think will attempt to block mercury vapours produced by lights from town
