ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for accurately transferring and permanently recording, for subsequent analysis and evaluation, the thickness and distribution of materials employed to condition a bowling lane surface. The apparatus comprises an elongated absorbent strip of transparent tape, one side of the strip adapted to absorb the conditioning materials, a roller for placing the absorbent side of the strip in pressurized contact with the conditioned bowling lane surface, and a mechanism for removing the absorbent strip from the conditioned surface of the bowling lane. Preferably, an elongated, transparent plastic backing strip is adapted to adhere to the absorbent side of the tape so as to provide a permanent record of the thickness and distribution of lane conditioning materials. The method includes the steps of pressing the absorbent side of the tape against the conditioned surface of the bowling lane removing the tape with the conditioning material absorbed thereon from the conditioned bowling lane surface, and securing the transparent plastic backing strip to the absorbent side of the tape after the tape is removed from the bowling lane to provide the permanent analyzable record.
