AH!! now we have edited the question!!
Cylinders are not normally coated with Kevlar unless they are made from the lightweight material CARBON FIBRE.
This Kevlar gives the carbon fibre some extra protection and a little more resistance to knocks and bangs.
The carbon/kevlar cylinders (they're not common) are much much lighter than a steel or Alloy cylinder so it saves weight for the diver on their back.
One drawback is that they are inherently buoyant.
Therefore they require an adjustment on weighting, and are not normally used in Technical diving as Stage Cylinders as they Bob up and get in the way.

If you base coat with kevlar fabric that is resin inpregnated and coat it with a explosive resistant spray coating would it be bullet proof?
Using a kevlar fabric as a base coat and coating it with an explosive-resistant spray may provide some level of protection against bullets, but it does not guarantee bulletproofing. The resistance to bullets depends on various factors such as the thickness and quality of the kevlar, the type and speed of the bullet, and the specific properties of the spray coating. It is essential to consult with experts and conduct thorough testing to determine the level of protection provided.
