Concrete Boo Boo

Hi!

Glad to find this great online community.

Last year after I pressure washed my concrete patio, I decided I would put it on the highest setting and etch some designs into the patio, with wifey's permission. Well, the shapes and words (heart, star, "Welcome", our last name, swirls, cross) weren't exactly what she had in mind and she hates it. So, I need to try and cover it up somehow.

The etching isn't very deep. You can barely feel the indentation with your fingers, if at all. But, you can definitely see it! Most people think that the kids drew on the patio with grey chalk.

Well, I hope I gave you a laugh at my misguided efforts. I'm hoping that a colored sealer of some sort may do the trick, but I've heard that it may not last. Of course, I can re-seal it every few years if needs be.

Any suggestions are much appreciated!!
