Abstract
A shaped object with a roughened surface is immersed in an aqueous solution of a metal salt and/or a solution of an organic metal. After the shaped object is dried, it is heated to form a metal-diffused layer in the shaped object and a ceramic surface layer on the shaped object. The ceramic surface layer has a large hardness, and is prevented from peeling off.
