Hi Vladimir,
 try this:

c4 = 1;

z4[rho_, theta_] := rho^2*Cos[2*theta];

min = -1 (* the minimun in your z axis*);
max = 1   (*...maximun ....*);

RevolutionPlot3D[c4*z4[rho, theta], {rho, 0, 1}, {theta, 0, 2*Pi}, 
 ColorFunction -> (ColorData["Rainbow"][(#3 - min)/(max - min)] &), 
 ColorFunctionScaling -> False]
