As a SAR pilot, we did some tests with CDs and DVDs a few years ago and they really make terrible signaling devices. While they appear bright at close range the diffusion and odd colors created by the signal pits limit their effective range and they aren’t nearly as noticeable from the air as a clean real mirror surface.
by any chance did you test a knife?
The old OMS knife used to be highly polished for this purpose. Ive never tried one in the open but under lights it put off a bright reflection.

yea my bcd knife is dull but leg knife is shinny so I know it would reflect well, but not too sure about it in the water.
My DAN tag is encased in a reflective "thingy." Hopefully, I'll never have to use the tag or the reflector. But, I have them both, just in case.
