1. A popcorn patch article comprising: a flexible substrate with a sticky surface and a facing surface opposite the sticky surface;an acoustic texture applied to the facing surface of the substrate; anda flexible cover coating applied over the combined acoustic texture and flexible substrate for capturing the acoustic texture on the facing surface of the substrate. 2. The article as claimed in claim 1, wherein the facing surface is a sticky surface, and at least one of the acoustic texture or the cover coating completely covers the facing surface. 3. The article as claimed in claim 1, wherein the acoustic texture is captured on the facing surface of the flexible substrate by being integrally formed in the flexible substrate. 4. The article as claimed in claim 3, wherein the sticky surface comprises an adhesive layer applied onto the flexible substrate. 5. The article as claimed in claim 3, wherein the sticky surface comprises microfibers integrally formed in the flexible substrate. 6. The article as claimed in claim 3, wherein the sticky surface comprises spines integrally formed in the flexible substrate. 7. A method for making a popcorn patch article, comprising the steps of: (a) applying an acoustic texture to a facing surface of a flexible substrate having a sticky surface opposite the facing surface; and then(b) applying a flexible cover coating over the acoustic texture, wherein the acoustic texture is applied to leave portions of the facing surface exposed, and the flexible cover coating is applied to cover both the acoustic texture and the exposed portions of the facing surface, thereby capturing the acoustic texture to the facing surface. 8. The article as claimed in claim 1, wherein the flexible cover coating is a flexible water-resistant rubber coating applied to ensure that the acoustic texture will not crumble during shipping, handling and installation. 9. The article as claimed in claim 1, wherein the flexible cover coating is a pre-formed coating. 10. A popcorn patch article for use on ceilings comprising: a flexible substrate with a sticky surface and a facing surface opposite the sticky surface;an acoustic texture applied to the facing surface of the substrate; anda preformed flexible cover coating applied over the combined acoustic texture and flexible substrate for securing the acoustic texture on the facing surface of the substrate,wherein the flexible cover coating is a leak-seal flexible rubber coating, andwherein the flexible cover coating and acoustic texture are applied to the facing surface prior to the application of the patch article. 11. The article as claimed in claim 10, wherein the acoustic texture is applied to the facing surface of the flexible substrate by being integrally formed in the flexible substrate.
