Laser Targets?

I have a set of Crimson Trace Laser grips on one of my 1911's. I do all of my shooting and practice outside. On sunny days the Laser does not show up very well if at all on white paper with black dots.

I have been searching the net for any kind of reflective target or reflective paper (larger that rolls of tape) with no luck.

Do any of you guys shoot lasers outside, if so what type of target do you use that will show the laser on bright days?

Thanks.
 
What you probably want are "retroreflective" labels or sheeting. By the nature of retroreflective coatings, no matter what angle the laser hits the coating from, it's always reflected straight back at the source. You see these kinds of coatings on traffic signs - that's why they always light up brightly when your headlights hit them, even if the sign isn't right in front of you.

The coating will diffuse the laser light slightly since it's not a perfectly flat mirrored surface, so you don't have to worry about being dazzled or blinded by the reflection.
