A second metallic layer, also optionally covered by a flexible, opaque material may be added to provide additional protection and make the shield reversible. The exterior opaque, metallic and insulating layer are attached together at their adjacent surfaces or at their peripheries. The laser shield may also utilize visual, audible, vaporous and/or electrical warning or alarm systems, and may embody the use of a variety of insulating materials to protect personnel and equipment from damage caused by laser radiation.
