Who smooth is the finish - is it like drywall or textured?

It's closer to drywall. If you are planning to paint it should be primed for best results. Overall I was happy with the end result and would use it again. It was also very easy to work with.

Very smooth, like drywall. This will cover the ridges in paneling well, but not larger defects like holes or raised defects like nailheads. As long as you butt the seams tightly, a good quality paint will cover the seams

It's like drywall. The wallpaper itself is thick and smooth, like a heavy construction paper.

Not cheap and rubbery, but hard and smooth with a fine, brush textured finish

I'm not sure about how textured you are talking about but mine had some chipped paint from previous paint counter tops (different brand) and I did not sand it and they came out fine. I even had a cut in my counter and that is covered and not noticeable. I don't want to use my kitchen cause it looks so good!

Rebecca it is very smooth. I stained it with a satin oak finish and I am very happy with it.Mike

it is not tacky or smooth. it is textured, and ribbed. it has a grip to it, but not that tacky grip that accumulates fuzz

It is smooth. It does not have a matte texture like some of the protectors I've seen.

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.

The best way I can describe it is grainy/snake like texture vinyl. I am pleasured with it. So far is has held up for my needs. I hope my reply helps.

I have the brushed finish and it is like a satin finish. I presume the other is more polished.

Mostly smooth but not like petroleum jelly. It's fairly solid at room temperature. Keep it out of direct sunlight, that'll bleach it and some of it will turn grainy, not smooth.

it is not smooth, there's a slight bit of texture to it similar to medium to fine grit sandpaper. Hope that helps!

really its neither. it is easily polished to a gloss if that is what you want but the finish is more of a smooth plastic ready for paint, not textured. hope that helps.

funny you should ask, I was actually looking at it closely last night. It's smooth in that it's coated, but it's not smooth like other products of this nature are (for instance Ikea products which have that slippery smooth quality). it has a slight grain, but the grain isn't really a wood texture, it's more very, very slightly textured. Overall I would say no grain is visible, but it's not perfectly smooth to the touch.

The wood grain shows, but I would not consider it to be prominent. If you're looking for a smooth finish, this is definately not the case. It also has flat or matte like finsih so it's not shiney. It's very well made and delivers assembled, which is nice

No it does not have the textured chalk board feel. It's very smooth just like painted wood.

Smooth would be best... My walls are concrete so they are not as smooth as a Sheetrock wall but mine stick just fine... If your walls are very bumpy with sharp bumps then I would not suggest this... If smooth textured bumps then you may get an okay result it will just take a bit of time to get the lettering to sit into all the high and lows of the texture... Hope this is helpful...
