I don't believe that's the right place to be posting source.

Anyway, the code that seems to be causing the problem is in this bit:-

#declare Chlitglass2=pigment{ gradient y color_map{[0 Red*2 filter
.9][11/18 Red*2 filter .9][14/18 Yellow*2 filter .9][18/18 Yellow*2
filter .9]} scale 18}

If you remove the "*2"s then it renders correctly. 
I don't understand the details of why you see the effect you do.
