Post by: Bigscrb15 on April 30, 2007, 09:18:30 PM your best bet is gonna be to scrape it up. get a 4" scraper blade and go after it. To get the concrete back to good condition to it will accept the stain you may need to acid etch it. Goto a local paint store(NOT Home Depot/Lowes) and ask what you should use. Not sure if you get into Tampa/St. Pete much but goto any Suncoast Paint store http://www.suncoastpaints.com/. They sell Dyco concrete stains, which are top of the line.
