There are no particular restrictions on the material of each layer, but for example, the transparent gel coat layer 4 may be a transparent resin such as unsaturated polyester resin, the colored gel coat layer 5 may be a transparent resin such as an unsaturated polyester resin, etc.
For the FRP layer 6, unsaturated polyester resin or other resin is blended with a pigment that gives the desired color tone, and for the FRP layer 6, unsaturated polyester is mixed with an appropriate amount of glass, for example, about 50 to 80% of the total FRP weight. Examples include those mixed with fibers and the like.
The FRTP layer 7 is made by mixing an appropriate amount of glass fiber, etc., for example, about 50 to 80% of the total FRTP weight, with acrylic resin or ABS resin, and if necessary, adding pigments, marble powder, etc. that give the desired color tone. Examples include those that have been blended.

If the transparent gel coat layer 4 and the colored gel coat layer 5 are too thick, the cost will increase, and the transparent gel coat layer 4 has a depth due to its transparency.
This may result in a loss of luxury. Furthermore, if these decorative layers are too thin, they may not be able to exhibit sufficient depth and color tone. Therefore, the thickness a of the transparent gel coat layer 4 is 0.1 to 1 mm.
The thickness b of the colored gel coat layer 5 is preferably determined as appropriate in the range of 0.1 to 1 mm.

The FRTP layer 7 of the handrail section 3 is usually provided so as to slightly cover the top surface 3a and side surface 3b of the handrail section 3. For this reason, the FRTP layer 7 has a substantially U-shaped cross section as shown in FIG.
is 5 mm or less, preferably about 1 to 4 mm. If the portion of this U-shaped FRTP layer 7 extending to the side surface 3b is too long, the portion of the handrail portion with a different hue will extend to the tank portion 2.
A color boundary line is formed on the surface, spoiling the beauty of the tank section 2. Therefore, the thickness e of the portion extending to the side surface 3b, that is, the end portion of the FRTP layer 7 is preferably 5 cm or less, preferably 2 cm or less.

In the method of the present invention, an FRP bathtub molding mold 20 having a desired shape as shown in FIG. 4a is used,
First, a transparent gel coat resin 21 is sprayed onto the mold surface 20a. Separately, the handrail molding portion 20 of the molding die 20
The FRP molded body 22 is molded into a shape that can fit into the handrail molded part 20b before the transparent gel coat resin 21 hardens. When the transparent gel coat resin 21 is not yet cured, the FRTP molded body 22 is placed in the handrail molding part 20 of the mold 20.
By setting the temperature to b, the solvent such as styrene contained in the transparent gel coat resin 21 makes the surface of the thermoplastic resin of the FRTP molded body 22 a little sticky. As a result, the FRTP molded body 22 is adhered to the transparent gel coat resin 21 with good adhesion.
