        It's difficult to say... 😐
        I assume that you've applied the texture to the back-side of the surface... 😕
        Check to see this in SU...

        In KT, you can also select the material and see where it's applied...

        Cheers

          Try exporting everything by material, not as components or instances.

            Excessive reflection in stairs indicates that you have applied texture to back-side. If you look stairs there is actually texture, it's just really faint.

              Okay, so I need to take the textures off the back side?

                Sertainly! Before you apply any texture to model, make sure that there are no blue faces (back-face) visible. Textures should be applied only to front face (white).

                  thanks! I actually applied the same texture to the front and the back of face and that seems to be working, its that incorrect?

                    Exporter should handle that situation too. Just make sure that there are no visible back-faces and front face has a texture. Then e back-face with texture will be ignored.

                      I started over with all the textures, put them all back to default repainted just the front faces and tried again and it still does not work, starting to piss me off

                      i guess i just need to read more about textures and KT b.c i am doing something wrong

                      thanks for the help though

                        Lets continue this topic at KT forums. No need to split this discussion at two different sites.
