Claims
- 1. A fascia and shoe molding for use in a bowling center comprising:(a) a high impact polymer forming the fascia and shoe molding; (b) the high impact polymer providing a durable version of the fascia and shoe molding; (c) the high impact polymer being secured next to at least one lane in a bowling center; and (d) the high impact polymer having a different color than the at least one lane in order to provide a safety factor and a decorative factor; (e) the fascia having at least one glow rod mounted therein; (f) the glow rod having a visible color when subjected to a black light system; and (g) the glow rod providing visibility in the bowling center.
- 2. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 1 further comprising the glow rod providing an elongated glowing light.
- 3. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 1 further comprising:(a) the shoe molding having at least one glow dowel set therein; (b) the at least one glow dowel having a visible color when subjected to a black light system; and (c) the at least one glow dowel providing visibility in the bowling center.
- 4. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 3 further comprising the at least one glow dowel providing a spot of glowing light.
- 5. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 4, further comprising the glow rod providing an elongated glowing light.
- 6. A method of forming fascia and shoe molding for use in a bowling center comprising:(a) cutting a piece of high impact plastic to a desired shape to form a plain fascia; (b) securing a glowable material adapted to glow under a black light to the piece of high impact plastic in order to convert the plain fascia into a glowable fascia; (c) mounting the glowable fascia in the bowling center; (d) forming a groove in the plain fascia; and (e) securing a glow rod in the groove in order to convert the plain fascia into the glowable fascia.
- 7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:(a) cutting a piece of high impact plastic to a desired shape to form a plain shoe molding; (b) forming at least one aperture in the plain shoe molding; and (c) securing a glow dowel in the at least one aperture in order to convert the plain shoe molding into a glowable shoe molding.
- 8. The method of claim 6 further comprising adding the glowable shoe molding to the glowable fascia.
- 9. A fascia and shoe molding for use in a bowling center comprising:(a) a high impact polymer forming the fascia and shoe molding; (b) the fascia and shoe molding including a face board and a molding strip; (c) the high impact polymer for the face board being about two to three centimeters thick, about 20 to 40 centimeters wide and about three to four meters long; (d) the molding strip being a shaped piece of the high impact polymer; (e) the fascia having a glow rod mounted therein; (f) the glow rod having a visible color when subjected to a black light system; (g) the glow rod providing visibility in the bowling center; and (h) the high impact polymer being next to at least one lane in a bowling center.
- 10. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 9 further comprising:(a) the high impact polymer being a homopolymer; (b) the high impact polymer providing a durable version of the fascia and shoe molding; and (c) the high impact polymer having a different color than the at least one lane in order to provide a safety factor and a decorative factor.
- 11. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 10 further comprising:(a) the shoe molding having at least one glow dowel set therein; and (b) the at least one glow dowel having a visible color when subjected to a black light system.
- 12. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 11 further comprising:(a) the fascia and shoe molding having a glow rod mounted therein; (b) the glow rod having a visible color when subjected to a black light system; and (c) the glow rod providing visibility in the bowling center.
- 13. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 12 further comprising:(a) the glow dowel being positioned in a top edge of a face board; (b) the top edge including an aperture for each of the glow dowel inserted therein; and (c) laminate screws holding the face board and the molding strip in position.
- 14. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 13 further comprising the glow dowel being positioned in the aperture by friction or glue.
- 15. The fascia and shoe molding of claim 14 further comprising:(a) a rod groove being formed in the face plate; (b) the glow rod being positioned in the rod groove; and (c) the glow rod being held in the rod groove by friction or glue.
