We just recently put up this wallpaper and love it. It has been so much fun to let our friends decorate our wall. We have textured dry wall and decided to put down wallpaper liner underneath this wallpaper. You would've definitely been able to see our drywall lumps and bumps had we not put the liner down.

1 side does have a texture to it, the other is smoothe. I don't think it matters, I flip them every once in awhile after cleaning... but that's just me.

I believe it will, our wall is lightly textured as well and it worked great, once you get it on, just take you fingers and press into texture, it looks awesome and no issues with it so far...been up for at least 6 months now!

Myra, it is textured, wish it was smooth, but I think it will still clean up and be safer than the plastic cutting boards I have used in the past. Check and see if they have one with a smooth top before you buy. Vicky Hulrey

If I remember correctly (I upgraded my home to sell), it was more polished. Probably a better description would be smooth finish. Certainly it was not high gloss. High gloss would make it stand out. Not what you want. I compared the finish to the ones at Home Depot. Virtually the same.

Yes, it is different. This has a thins soft pad on one side. The other side is what I would liken to drywall sandpaper. This is totally pliable so will get down into the bowl very easily. It worked great for me.

No, it is smooth. I see some responses say it does have texture, which I cannot understand, as most wallpapers do not. This is smooth, regular wallpaper. I put it in my son's room for an accent wall (other walls are terra-cotta). It looks good--fun. I don't think of it as a "serious" wallpaper but a kind of hip, trompe-l'oeil look.

It's kinda like a sticker that you smooth out with a plastic piece...similar to a credit card. I would go too bumpy because smoothing it on the wall could cause the bumps to poke through but it's fairly thick. I'd say try it unless the wall is really rough.

When I first opened and installed the case I did not like the feel of the texture, on the back of the case. It was MATTE, but also had a rough, powdery feel to it. After a few days use that powdery "coating" (for lack of a better term) has smoothed out and is just a matte texture, as I expected.

It is a wallpaper. A very porous surface will not provide a good adhesion between wall and paper. Texture if concrete will be transferred to texture of mural. A sealer, a couple of coats, would allow application but the surface texture will be apparent under close inspection.

Due to thickness of product, it's best suitable for non-porous smooth surfaces. Drywall is mostly porous and it's not recommended due to mixed results. Some glossy-type drywall may perform better.

My walls weren't 100% smooth, and they adhered very well. I would imagine if the texture is pretty smooth, they would work, but not if it's a bumpy texture.

I believe it always has some texture to it. There are different patterns available. I've never seen smooth.

A textured wall meaning it is not smooth right? I don't think it will stick very well. Because I think the wall has to be smooth in order for it to stick very well otherwise it may tear. The product is like a picture on a double side tape, you first put on the wall, then you use like a credit card to remove any bubble while you were placing it (that's the part that takes quite some time, you need to be very patient to remove all the bubble and you need a smooth surface to be able to do that very well I think), then you remove the extra sheet on the picture.When you do it that way it like very well it is a painting on the wall.I hope that helps.

I experience the texture as rich and creamy. It is creamy enough to smoothly glide onto my skin but doesn't feel oily. It is more of a matte finish once applied. I've never had any breakouts from it. I believe it is non-comedogenic (doesn't clog the pores). My friend who told me about it has VERY sensitive skin, and she uses it with no problems.

Well when it first arrived, it is indeed smooth as I suppose the top layer is treated. With several usage and washing, there will be wear and tear, and it will not be as smooth as before and also depend on how it is being used. Wood being a natural material, there are grains and texture on it. It was not a big deal for me and I did not have to do anything to it.

I also purchased the Surge multi-tool with the black oxidized finish. Mine was not shiny either. It had a somewhat "oily" coating that did seem a little smudged but now after use looks just fine. It definitely should not have come with scratches on it however. I use the multi-tool everyday. It has taken a beating and just keeps on going. To me a few scratches would not have been a huge deal because, as a tool, I know that I will be adding some scratches as my own during use. But if the scratches bother you, I'm sure that would be a good enough reason to return it. Some advice though: do not return it and get something different. This is by far the best multi-tool that I have ever owned! I also purchased the Surge multi-tool with the black oxidized finish. Mine was not shiny either.
