Stunning Sand Results with SticKote
As you can see from these stairs on the right, SticKote has the ability to cover every surface with beautiful sand!
A contractor in the Eastern Cape used SticKote only to mix and bind these beautiful pale sand to a set of staircases that led from a clients home to their own private beach. The wonderful thing about this is that it provided a soft non-slip coating on the steps so when the client left the beach they wouldn't slip on the stairs as well as match the beach themed decor of their garden. A truly stunning sight!

This type of work is only possible with the proper use of SticKote, another brilliant invention by Kote Products.

Pebbles no longer need to banished to a garden pathway, you can creatively have them displayed in so many different places. Whether that be outdoors for a shower or indoors as a feature wall!
Anything is possible with a little imagination!

Only by ensuring you use both the notch trowel and the flat 'normal' trowel will you get a smooth and solid finish with your pebble application.
But if you are ever in doubt feel free to call and ask the technical expert their advise, it is better to ask before application than to come back later when the job has not turned out the way you hoped.
How To Apply SticKote to Stair Uprights
We have had quite a few customers and contractors ask us about how to apply the pebbles to the vertical surfaces, particularly the uprights of stairs.
In the video (left) we show you one way to apply. In the video we have not utilised the use of an aluminium tile trimming edge but that would be the best way to ensure crisp 90 degree right angles on all your steps.

So you have placed down the pebble paving but your client is looking for a more 'smooth' finish well we have the solution. While SticKote can be used to apply pebbles vertically we have found that the binder can also be used as a 'glaze' coating for on top of the pebbles.
This will help make it last longer and more weather resistant.

Many Uses for SticKote
SticKote is not just used on pebbles. It can also be applied just like JoinKote where it gets trowels or squeezed into cracks, crevices and various spots that require an extra thick layer of protection.
Here you can see the contractor bought some SticKote to use in the bottom of two apex roofs where the water would often gush into and cause leaks.
SticKote was mixed with some fine sand to create a hard surface which is safe to walk on plus non-slip and generously applied this onto the surface. Once it was fully cured the contractor applied a tinted layer of waterproofing liquid, WaterKote, and now both the contractor and property owner can feel happy and secure that the waterproofing has been applied in a way that will make it last for years.
