Yeah, I want a few hundred square feet.

1.6 inches of it stops a 50BMG armor piercing round.  Make that a few hundred thousand square feet.

With this stuff stones, rocks, and any bullets at less than $1.00 each would not be problem inside or out.

I wonder how heavy it is and if it could be used for a personal shield?
