Powder coating is far more durable than paint, but also more expensive. Also, if you should ever want to remove it, it WILL NOT come off easily with sandpaper or even sand blasting. My powder coated steel computer desk had to be dipped in a vat of hydrochloric acid to remove the finish. However, if durability is key, look under "Coatings" or "Industrial Coatings".
Rack Surface Finish
I have a generic steel two shelf rack that I got very cheaply and serves my purposes. It needs resurfacing. I do not know if I should have it professionally refinished in chrome, powder coat or paint. Is this just a matter of taste, appearance or function? What should I look under in the telephone book to find the finisher? I need opinions.
