tackiness
Surface clings slightly
Tackiness has two distinct meanings.
The first is the quality of being slightly sticky to the touch: Wait until the paint loses its tackiness before applying the second coat.
The second describes something cheap, gaudy, or lacking in taste or style: The tackiness of the decorations made the whole room feel like a carnival booth.
