An aluminum or aluminum alloy material is subjected to anodic oxidation, then to a treatment of electrophoresis in a bath containing a hexacyanoferrate (II) or hexacyanoferrate (III), and subsequently to a treatment of immersion in a bath containing at least one metal salt selected from the group consisting of salts of Fe, Ni, Co, Cu, Zn, Cd, Ba, Tl, and Mg and at least one electrolyte selected from the group consisting of sodium sulfate, potassium sulfate, sodium chloride, and potassium chloride. Consequently, a coloring compound formed by the reaction of the aforementioned hexacyanoferrate (II) or hexacyanoferrate (III) with the aforementioned metal salt is deposited in the receding parts of micropores of an anodic oxide coating, with the result that the aluminum or aluminum alloy material is endowed with a durable color.
