Don't think white is the best choice because of reflections

They totally flood the detectors and if I change high/low outputs they might work with just the detector part of the module. ? [this requires testing as cars on one track may block the detectors on the other track]

??? The glossy white paint was put on to see if above reflection would help, it didn't.
