Salim,

You could do it this way

write a UDF to determine the ColoIndex of a cell
in the adjacent column, use the UDF to get the Colorindex
filter on this column
select not equal to hour value
Delet visible rows

Here is an additional approach:
assume the colors are at least in column A

Sub DeleteColor()
Dim rng As Range, LastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
Set rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns(1).Cells
LastRow = rng(rng.Count).Row
For i = LastRow To 1 Step -1
idex = Cells(i, 1).Interior.ColorIndex
Select Case idex
Case 3, 8, 9, 21
Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Delete
End Select
Next
End Sub
