2. Description of the Related Art It is quite difficult to produce a metal film having excellent adhesive strength on the surface of aluminum and its alloy substrate by electroless plating, because of the strong activity of the aluminum surface. The zincate treatment is performed prior to the treatment. However, the zincate treatment method not only has a long and complicated pretreatment step, but also a caustic soda,
Since a strong alkali such as nitric acid or hydrofluoric acid or a strong acid is used to corrode the surface of the substrate, the field of use is limited. In addition, some alloys may not be applicable. In addition to this, there are anodizing method, substitution method, direct method, etc., but they have advantages and disadvantages and are not superior to the zincate treatment method.

However, this method has a long treatment step and is complicated as described above, and it is difficult to apply it to a casting product because it uses a strong acid and a strong alkali. In addition, depending on the type of alloy and the demand for the smoothness of the finished surface, it is necessary to change the mixing ratio and concentration with nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid, or to omit immersion in a caustic soda solution.
