First Claim
1. A method of making a composite product having a preformed, self-sustaining pliable non-void containing skin sheet and a preformed non-rigid void containing, low density plastic layer which comprises:
- (1) establishing a layer of said low density plastic,(2) spraying on at least one side of liquid sprayable curative to yield a wetted surface on said low density plastic,(3) next spraying on said wet surface of the low density plastic a liquid sprayable polymer to wet the surface of the low density plastic with said polymer, said polymer being one which together with said curative is reactive at elevated temperature to form a tenacious, essentially non-porous adhesive which bonds to both said sheet and said layer,(4) next contacting said skin sheet with said wetted surface of said low density plastic layer, and(5) curing said polymer at elevated temperature whereby said skin sheet is adhered to said layer.

Abstract
A method of making a composite product having a preformed, self-sustaining pliable skin sheet and a preformed non-rigid void containing, low density plastic layer which comprises:
(1) establishing a layer of said low density plastic,
(2) applying to at least one side a liquid sprayable curative,
(3) next applying to the same said side thereof a liquid sprayable polymer which together with said curative is reactive at elevated temperature to form a tenacious, essentially non-porous adhesive which bonds to both said sheet and said layer,
(4) next contacting said skin sheet with said side of the low density plastic layer,
(5) curing said polymer at elevated temperature whereby said skin sheet is adhered to said layer.
