Regular Texture (Popcorn Stiple)

Popcorn stiple was the most common ceiling texture in the past but many people are now having it scraped off and replaced with knock-down or splatter ceiling texture. Popcorn Stiple is the best texture to cover up a less than perfect tape job as it hides many imperfections.
