public Material[] materials;
public Renderer Rend; 

private int index = 1;


void Start()
{
    Rend = GetComponent<Renderer>();
    Rend.enabled = true;
}

void OnMouseDown()
{

     if (materials.Length == 0)
        return;

    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
    {
        index += 1;

        if (index == materials.Length + 1)
            index = 1;

        print(index);

        Rend.sharedMaterial = materials[index - 1]; 

        
    }
}

}

ok so here my script is able to change the color of my object when i click on it but i want to revert the color after one or two secondes

void OnMouseDown()
{
if (materials.Length == 0)
return;
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
StartCoroutine(ChangeColor());
}
}
IEnumerator ChangeColor()
{
index += 1;
if (index == materials.Length + 1)
index = 1;
print(index);

    Material mat = Rend.sharedMaterial;
    Rend.sharedMaterial = materials[index - 1];

    yield return new WaitForSeconds(2);//2 seconds for exxample

    Rend.sharedMaterial = mat;
}

Hi @mightofficiel,
If you are just looking for a change in the color, there is no need to change the material just we can change the color instead of the material. Just make sure that it’s not a default material, then you can try something like this

public class ColorChange : MonoBehaviour
{
    //Get Initial Color
    Color startColor;

    //The new color to be applied
    public Color newColor;

    public float swtichTime = 3.0f;

    void Start()
    {
        //Get the inital color
        startColor = GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material.color;
    }

    //Make sure a collider is present on that object
    private void OnMouseDown()
    {
        StartCoroutine(ColorSwitch());
    }

    IEnumerator ColorSwitch()
    {
        //Change the color instantly to new color
        GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material.color = newColor;

        //Wait for 3 seconds
        yield return new WaitForSeconds(swtichTime);

        //Switch to the previous color
        GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material.color = startColor;
    }
}
