Is a galvanized nail magnetic?

A galvanized nail is typically not magnetic because it is usually made of steel, which is magnetic, but the galvanization process involves coating the nail with a layer of zinc. This coating can affect the nail's overall magnetic properties, often making it appear less magnetic or non-magnetic. However, the core steel of the nail may still exhibit some magnetic properties. In most cases, if you test a galvanized nail with a magnet, the magnet may not stick strongly due to the zinc coating.
