I only linked to the documentation about the renderer’s material…You still require to use the renderer’s material. As Pradeep has given, you would assign the material to the renderer’s material.

if(GUI.Button(new Rect(0, 0, 100, 20), "material1")
{
gameObject.renderer.material = material1;
}

if(GUI.Button(new Rect(0, 30, 100, 20), "material2")
{
gameObject.renderer.material = material2;
}

Got it?
