        "text": "The primary difference lies in the final aesthetic and preparation. A smooth finish drywall requires meticulous mudding and sanding to achieve a perfectly flat, unblemished surface, which is ideal for modern, clean aesthetics. Textured drywall, on the other hand, involves applying a compound in various patterns (e.g., orange peel, knockdown, popcorn) after the initial mudding. Textures can help hide minor imperfections and add visual interest, though they can be harder to repair invisibly.",
