1) Self-adhesive wallpaper is supposed to be applied to "smooth walls". My walls feel smooth but look like there is a flattened texture. It's not a popcorn-like texture but it's definitely not perfectly smooth drywall. House built 2018, we're south of 44 in a designer home, first occupants; the walls were painted in 2021. Will self adhesive wall paper stick to this "smooth texture" (my term) walls? Do I need "drywall smooth" walls for success?

2) Is this stuff REALLY easy to install? I've seen real wallpaper hung & I would NEVER attempt that, even on a small bathroom wall.

3) Is it really really, truly easy to remove?

Thanks for your wisdom & experience.
Kim is a person that’s papered many homes here. Despite the orange peel wall texturing we have down here, it absolutely can be papered. Please consider speaking directly to a pro, rather than rely on posts from people who have no real world experience in applying wall textures Home | Creative Interiors by Kim - The Villages, FL
