Abstract
A blow molding is composed of a blow molded body with a hollow interior, an ornamental strip integrally bonded therewith on the outer surface thereof, and an end cap attached to both ends of the ornamental strip, which is free from warpage or forming a gap between the ornamental strip and the blow molded body owing to the change of temperature in use. The end cap is so attached to slide longitudinally to the ornamental strip, keeping a space between its end portion and an edge surface of the ornamental strip for accommodating the molding expansion. A fixture of the ornamental strip and the end cap are embedded in the blow molded body.
