Ah, thanks Herman! That's a fantastic way to do it.
Do you just cut the CDs with a blade? I imagine they would shatter quite easily, and would be best with no backing graphic on it?

Once the PVA is dry on the backing just cut the section you need oversize with a good pair of scissors, then sand the shape to size. If you cut the CD without securing the backing as you call it, the stuff just flakes off.

For periscopes, you can use a film separated from a broken smartphone, remove the glass and there is a bunch of films, choose the one that is rainbow.
You can even take from holographic stickers from different products.

Still mud to add, black is the paint chipping off the skirtings
