Abstract

A method for producing multi-colored articles using injection molding results in an elongated article having a pattern of adjacent areas formed of discrete, separately molded materials, of different colors. Articles produced by this method are sturdy, safe and visually attractive, making them especially suitable for use as handles for personal grooming brushes and similar products.
