Abstract
Provided is a method for manufacturing a zinc-based coated steel sheet having excellent press formability. The method includes an oxide layer-forming step of bringing the zinc-based coated steel sheet into contact with an acidic solution, holding the zinc-based coated steel sheet for 1 second to 60 seconds, and then water-washing the zinc-based coated steel sheet and a neutralization step of holding a zinc-based oxide layer formed in the oxide layer-forming step for 0.5 seconds or more in such a state that a surface of the zinc-based oxide layer is in contact with an alkaline aqueous solution, water-washing the zinc-based oxide layer, and then drying the zinc-based oxide layer. The acidic solution contains HFNa and/or HFK in a total amount of 0.10 g/L to 5.0 g/L.
