By providing a pre-formed compressible substrate with an intimately bonded thin film layer integrally affixed thereto in surrounding protecting relationship, a surface coated cushioning member for mounting to otherwise hard-surfaced products is realized. In the preferred embodiment, the surface coated cushioning member of the present invention is formed from foamed thermoplastic, elastomeric or rubber polymers or copolymers and are constructed with an elongated hollow cylindrical shape for peripherally surrounding and protecting products manufactured from elongated tubes, pipes, conduits, and the like. In addition to the product achieved, the present invention also includes a unique process for manufacturing the surface coated cushioning member and systems employed in accordance with the preferred process.
