this code is not working and color remain in blue
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

    Material Text;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () 
    {
        Text = gameObject.renderer.material;

	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () 
    {
        Text.color = Color.Lerp(Color.blue, Color.red, 3);
        Debug.Log("color is red");
        if (Text.color == Color.red)
        {
            
            Text.color = Color.Lerp(Color.red, Color.blue, 3f);
            Debug.Log("color is blue");

        }

	
	}
}

um you do know how Lerp works right?

for some reason you use a constant 3 instead of a variable. what will happen since you set it to more than 100 percent each frame, your eyes wont even pick up a color change, though it is change, this will slow it done for you.

public class ColorSwitch : MonoBehaviour {
    Material Text;
    float Timer = 0f;
    // Use this for initialization
    void Start () 
    {
        Text = gameObject.renderer.material;
 
    }
 
    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update () 
    {
        Text.color = Color.Lerp(Color.blue, Color.red, Timer);
        Debug.Log("color is red");
        if (Text.color == Color.red)
        {
 
            Text.color = Color.Lerp(Color.red, Color.blue, Timer);
            Debug.Log("color is blue");
 
        }
         Timer += Time.deltaTime * 0.02f;
 if(Timer >= 1f) {
Timer = 0f;

}
         
 
    }
}

now it should fade to blue and to red over and over;
