I’m quite new to Blender. I have imported an STL of something I made in Solidworks.
It all looks good, but I can’t seems to texture or apply materials to different surface or any surface at all.

Why. What happens or doesn’t happen. Explain exactly what you do and what happens
Process:
Add a material slot, set the material settings, this gets assigned to the whole object
Add a material slot, set the material settings, select the faces you want to apply and press the Assign button in the material settings
Add a material, set the material settings, select the faces you want to apply and press the Assign button in the material settings
continue as above
You may also want to clean up the mesh by removing double vertices (select all verst and W / remove doubles) and possible dissolve edges (X / limited Dissolve) to add material placement
