In producing an aluminum alloy bearing which comprises bonding an aluminum alloy layer to a backing metal layer composed of steel and then coating an intermediate layer and an overlay in this order on the surface of the aluminum alloy layer of the resulting semi-finished product, the surface of the aluminum alloy layer of the semi-finished product is subjected to etching treatment and the smut attached to the said surface is removed by subjecting the etched semi-finished product to de-smutting treatment using, as a de-smutting solution, an aqueous solution comprising 20 to 60% by weight of sulfuric acid and 2 to 10% by weight of a peroxoborate, whereby the tolerance of the bearing height is made small, the working environment is rendered good and the draining treatment is made easy. |
