Diffraction can create "rainbow" colors when illuminated by a wide-spectrum (e.g., continuous) light source. The sparkling effects from the closely spaced narrow tracks on optical storage disks such as CDs or DVDs are an example. Similar rainbow effects seen in thin layers of oil (or gasoline, etc.) on water are not caused by a grating but rather by iridescence in reflections from the closely spaced transmissive layers. A grating has parallel lines, while a CD has a spiral of finely spaced data tracks. Diffraction colors also appear when one looks at a bright point source through a translucent fine-pitch umbrella-fabric covering. Decorative patterned plastic films based on reflective grating patches are very inexpensive and commonplace.
