Anyone have any info on the effect of high pressure washing at about 300 psi on galvanized coating? Will high pressure washing remove the galvanizing?

The bond strength - the bond strength is about 3600 psi (25 MPa).

I would not expect any problem with galvanizing that was done correctly, sans flaky, or large inclusions, such as ash or dross.
