It is an object to provide a method for producing a member for a molten metal bath which is less likely to form minute cracks and pores in a pores-sealing coating film, and to provide a method for producing a member for a molten metal bath which can restrain adhesion of an alloy such as dross. The method for producing a member for a molten metal bath is characterized by applying or spraying, to a cermet thermal spray coating film formed on a base material or an oxide-based ceramic thermal spray coating film formed on a base material, a mixed solution obtained by adding aluminum dihydrogen phosphate and inorganic particles having a layered hexagonal crystal structure to a silica sol solution as a solution for sealing pores of the thermal spray coating film, and firing the mixed solution which is applied or sprayed to the thermal spray coating film.
