Abstract: A method of producing a profiled strip of polymeric material having a desirable surface finish on the outer periphery of the strip. The method comprising the steps of first extruding a profile strip of polymeric material through an extrusion die in a plastic extruder, laminating a sheet layer having a desirable surface finish on the surface facing the profiled strip to a predetermined area on the outer periphery of the profile strip and then cooling the profiled strip together with the laminated sheet layer such that the laminated sheet layer can be removed from the profiled strip to expose the desirable finish reproduced from the surface of the sheet layer.
