Abstract
The instant invention relates to a method of decorating an extruded plastic strip which is used for ornamental purposes. In the method of the invention, a plastic strip is passed through a pair of rollers which emboss the face thereof to be decorated with a raised design. The entire decorative face is then covered with a release agent from the top surface of the raised design. A coloring material is then applied to the entire decorative surface. Excess coloring and the release agent are thereafter washed, peeled, or otherwise removed from the strip. The design is then highlighted by the coloring material thereupon.
