Electricity Gives Bubbles Super Strength

From the "Uses" section of Wikipedia's "Contact paper" entry [wikipedia.org]:

- Commonly used to line or cover kitchen and bathroom cabinets and drawers, counter tops, bookshelves, closet shelving, and pantry areas
- Covering up or protecting areas which have become (or could become) stained or ruined because of a project. Examples include art projects, foods and liquids, destructive substances
- The clear variety can be used for laminating books, art projects, posters, pictures, or other objects
- As part of a collage

It's quite probable that while the term is "contact paper" of the clear variety, it was actually the sticky-backed plastic you're all talking about. I'm not saying paper can't be transparent, but I'm suggesting the possibility that it was not, in this case, paper as the name "contact paper" suggests.
