Default Making a Glider Easier to See in the Air

Wasn't there an article in "Sailplane and Gliding" about the
visibility of high contrast and reflective paints a couple of years
ago? I give away old issues so don't currently have it. Anyone have
that article?
....The assumption here is that the power pilot is using that window
thing in front. I used to be in a club at an airport with a VOR on it.
We NEVER assumed that the pilot of a cruising aircraft was looking at
anything other than the instrument panel.
