We have a small porch at our front door. The concrete looks terrible. Not sure what previous owners did where all those circles are, but we would like to make it look good again. Hesitant to paint due to maintaining that! What can we use to “clean” the concrete to restore it? Tried pressure washing to no avail. Thanks for any advice!

Thin bleach mixed 50-50 with water. Scrub it in a little and leave for a few hours then rinse off. Don't use thick bleach. If that doesn't work you can try SE's method then it would be paint. Use an outdoor paint for concrete.
