A coated carrier regenerating method in accordance with the present invention includes the step of: determining an amount of a worn-away coating resin of a used coated carrier. Accordingly, an amount of the coating resin layer to be supplemented, namely an amount of the coating resin with which the coating resin layer is to be supplementarily coated is found based on this amount of the worn-away coating resin, whereby the supplementary coating of the used coated carrier can be carried out with the coating resin in the amount thus determined. This allows regeneration of a coated carrier in which a coating resin has a uniform thickness, that is, a coating resin layer has a thickness which is unchanged from the thickness obtained before use of the coated carrier, without the need of completely removing the coating resin from the used coated carrier. According to the method of the present invention as mentioned above, it is possible to easily regenerate, in a shorter time and at a lower cost, a coated carrier in which a coating resin layer has a uniform thickness.
