driven by friction drive roll 34 guide rolls 39 42 and 36 are used to direct the release liner 8 and colored laminated composite as the process is performed from one end of apparatus 52 to its other end alternatively release liner 8 may be eliminated if conveyor belt 30 is made of a non sticking material or is coated with a non sticking release coating conveyor rolls 31 and 32 provide an adjustable or constant rate of travel to belt 30 which in combination with the rate of flow of mixture 6 determine the thickness of membrane 14 the thickness of membrane 14 is an important parameter in this process since subsequent operations for example thermoforming or injection molding a layer of molten plastic on it and subsequent or simultaneous stretching of the composite may result in significant surface deformation which may alter the exterior color or the surface characteristics of the delamination resistant colored membrane an example of such subsequent operations that may be performed on the colored laminated composite of the present invention is disclosed in u s pat no 5 401 457 which is incorporated herein by reference as uncured thermoset membrane 14 is extruded on release liner 8 its top surface.
