We stained our concrete patio with water based stain a couple years ago. It needs to be redone. We would like to redo it with an acid based stain.
How can I remove the old stain? It is flaking in some spots. I tried a pressure washer, taking care not to remove the cream layer of the concrete. That is hard to do, and still get the other stuff off... It took over an hour to do a 5x2' section; I have almost 700sqft to do.
The acid stain pamphlet says not to use acid to wash the concrete; the acid stain will not take if this has been done.
Any idea's?
