After ruining our summer fighting wicked high CYA (160-190) and Calcium, we’re going to drain 90% of the water and refill. Since we didn’t have step markers attached during build, can I do that while it’s drained? Is it possible to put markers on the pebble tec with under water glue right before we start the refill process?
Can step markers be attached to stairs while empty?

Tile step markers?
Tile step markers are placed on with thinset to the shell before plaster. Then they become flush with the plaster surface.
You will have raised tiles that can be trip hazards and rough on feet if you just glue them down. And pebbles are not a solid smooth surface to glue anything to.
I would not advise it.

Trim tile, not usual with pebble tech, has to be added before the pebble product is applied. Anything you use now will fail, and could be a hazard.
