Abrasion resistance of zinc plating vs. powder coating

Q. Hello,

I want to know the difference in abrasion resistance between powder coating & Zinc Plating. We want to replace powder coating with Zinc/zinc alloy Plating but we don't know which deposit has the better abrasion resistance & better deposition structure, and reasons behind it.

With Regards,
