Wouldn't there be something somewhat cheap and easy to apply that would strengthen it considerably?
Other than the blood of your mortal enemies.

grab like $20 worth of chrome paint from home depot or lowes.....
PerroMalcriado
that's the problem, these look cool but a child would destroy them in seconds

i want to coat it in fiberglass so bad...

Having made some stuff I bet it took days or at least 1 full day to make.
KeeleonOhms
This could would die so quick in Dark Souls.
EZMONEY98
light weight means you could roll around faster
Jagadid
And a kid probably wouldn't run out of stamina ever. Iframes half the time. The
vwyx
Dark Souls always has at least one armor set that's just edgy robes or rags.

That looks amazing! I wish I had that as a kid

silver spray paint would be a nice finish.

Don't forget a nice Jerusalem cross.

alternatively you could throw the armour (your choice whether the child is in it) into a vat of molten steel.

You can also buff and paint it a bit to make more realistic

I’ll cover you in aluminum tape

I've never been able to make duct tape stick to cardboard.

Shiny armour has never been used.

I can confirm it works. I once made myself a shredder suit for a costume party - used aluminium tape.

Oh, I see. She's taken a downvote, and she's covered it in bioluminescent algae...as a diversion.
Notforhire
I was gonna say paint or spray paint might be easier but that shiny duct tape would look awesome
Jufasa
Aluminum tape is better than shiny duct tape for a metallic finish. It is a roll of sticky backed aluminum
oneofthecalled
Duct tape would add to the integrity of the armor
And it couldn't rub off and possible get on your candy
DuctTapeDave
That's what I came here to say.

best way is spray glue, then alum. foil. Its ends up looking better and is way cheaper.
ab47203
Or aluminum tape...literally the same thing but in strips with the glue already on
Way more expensive, tends to come off easier, and you have to deal with lining up the seams.
And with foil you have one chance to get it on right it'll rip if you try and adjust it it's very fragile and you have to line up seams
Also you have to keep it from wrinkling meaning you likely need a new roll
