This approach only works in daylight with cameras that rely on colour only. Infrared spectrum cameras such as what Australia uses on mobile phone traffic cameras are much harder to deal with.

Disabling the cameras entirely is much more effective.
Can’t you make patterns in infrared reflective paint?
