This contact paper came in rough shape. When I unrolled the paper, the vinyl had lifted (from the curl of the tube) from the adhesive paper on the back, so I was worried about it sticking to my countertop. These wrinkles in the paper were able to be smoothed out. I was able to apply this contact paper to my countertops with help from a friend, scissors, a marker, and a couple of used gift cards to catch air bubbles. So far, it has worked out great for me, but beware that this is incredibly expensive for the amount of contact paper you actually get! The quality is worth it for countertops, not other things imo.
