Desperate for help with my patio ,

12 years ago
Where - FL on a jungly canal (lots of moisure)
Previous owners 'stained' the entire huge patio of ceramic tiles. probably 3 years ago. Last year, I couldn't stand the peeling (too far down list to afford sandblasting or refurnishing), so we power washed the crap out it (strippers didn't work well, were expensive and toxic) and restained with (H&C® Concrete Stain Solid Color Water-based).
Lots of peeling in just months. Arghhhh!
Picture shows tile in background - had to repair small section but shows thin, brick shape of them.
Want something that will last as long as possible (willing to patch), not going to break the bank. Rather not have a solid look, I can layer for a wash or more, taped design. Would like it to look NICE.
This will be strictly DIY but I'm creative, and can do/figure out most things I set out to do. I can tackle working in smaller pieces throughout the month. But we cannot get all the 'stain' off - we tried rather hard last time.
Months ago a technician for a product posted something about a colored product that might work to lightly float but he didn't keep appt, lost his number. Dazzle Effects is cool, probably won't work. Pool paint?
