Do you mean that was the common colours he was represented in before coca-cola made him red ?
I mean that before coca cola was made, they still pictured that he is a fat, white beardy, old man but they pictured him green.
actually, the whole thing about Coca-Cola making him red is a lie: before Coca-Cola used a red and white Santa in the 30s, White Rock Beverages used a red and white Santa to sell mineral water in 1915, and it was also used in an advertisement for ginger ale in 1923.
Also, Puck Magazine used a red and white santa in their 1902, 1904 and 1905 covers. To add more, Sinterklaas, a prechristian winter holiday figure strongly linked to Santa Claus, was portrayed with a red mitre.
But the green color isn't a lie too: there is another winter figure(who eventually became our Santa Claus) in many northern legends who was portrayed as a big old man wearing a green cape wich extends down to his feet, adorned with white fur. He represented the spirit of the goodness of Christmas, and he can also be found in 1843 Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", here named The Ghost of Christmas Present.

Did you know that a asthma inhaler can be used to freeze something for a short amount of time but you need to spray the same spot about 4 or 5 times.
(Tried it out on my arm, it works)

It's just because of the spray. Almost any spray can can chill things
