Like some of the others have said, if is was done right and the metal was pre-treated properly with either iron phosphate conversion or blasting or both prior to application it will come off hard. If not, it will come off pretty easy. Powder is over rated for some applications and is not the end all to durability. Wet paints can be better in many cases and will stick in applications where pre-treatment was not too good before coating. A chip in a wet paint generally won't spread much or very fast. Scratch or chip powder and it will come off in sheets. The reason is wet paint sticks to metal. powder on the other hand has little adhesion properties to it and doesn't actually stick. You have to make the metal accept and hang on to the powder by using a blast or conversion profile to give it something to hang on to or it will let go. Personally I would get out the weed burner and burn off the powder then clean, sand, and apply your favorite wet coating to it. Powder is popular because it costs less to use than liquids per square ft., fast to apply, is environmentally friendly and can be very durable in many applications if done properly.
