what is the best waterproof but not submerged non slip poly finish
a drying rack with dowels needs to hold onto the clothes etc
was thinking maybe do a rough sand and then apply poly and leave it
another idea was to get that non slip stair tape and put a strip on
each dowel
but that means to buy the tape and apply the tape and a non slip coating
would be easier and simpler

Take some metal and polish it really smooth. Now apply a few coats of
really slick wax. Buff if necessary. Most drying racks will hold the
towels just fine, no matter how slick it is.
So don't worry about it. My biggest concern would be moisture, so a
poly would hold up just fine. The right wood wouldn't even need a
finish.

ended up sprinkling some silica sand on second to last coat
the roughness is there and it is hard to see
most important is that it holds well
