People do this a lot in Hawaii, but we can't seem to get the cement to contain the tiles, etc. that we put on top of the cement. Is it because of the humidity or is there a secret to getting stuff to stay on top of the cement. Yes, we press it in very firmly. Thanks!

Kelly, you need to make a concrete mix. Cement is only one ingredient! You make concrete by mixing cement with building sand and crushed stone and water. Mix 1 part of cement with four parts each of sand and stone and enough water to make a workable mix. You can make a stronger mix with a 1:3:3 ratio. Then all you do is push the keys into the concrete before it has fully set. You don't want the mix to be too stoney or it will be very rough. So, rather use finely crushed stone or gravel.
