Tedster, I mean this point. the variations of colors. WMT shows me a significant growth in similar pages. I think itīs the variations of color an lenght for the same manufacture + Typ combination. So google could see this as Spam? Would a canonical tag help? Because it is only a suggestion for google to choose the non canonical page for the serps. But will I shoot myself in the foot, because I will reduce my pages in index?

Dymero, that is not true. The the help pages from google has a example with shoes and different colors. They say to make the page with the most liked color to the canonical page.

But I donīt have a most like lenght / color. So i will reduce my chance for users to find different colors or lenght? But to have so many different typs with almost same description is not good for rankings? i guess.
