I use a pressure washer - keep it away from the grout or go gently. Then I buy a concrete sealer from HOme Depot.

Hi LUVNANAJO. I used this product on the outside brick of my home, over the paint. Also did a brick stenciled floor and used this for the top coat. This is by far the best masonary sealer on the market! Easy to apply, no bubbling, and hard as a rock when dry. It's indoor or out, comes in semi, high and matte finishes. Marion is right about the cleaning. Be sure to let dry for at least 2-3 days prior to sealing. Share your finished project when done too! 😉 Have fun!

First step...power wash. Blow out all old moldy, weedy joints. Second step, re-sand. Use sand that is Polymeric meaning it has cement in it. Read the instructions because you don't want to have all of your pavers turn "cement gray". Third step...I like Gator Seal Satin finish sealer. ROLL it on... and roll it on good & heavy. Don't spray unless you have a sprayer designed for chemicals that will eat through the hoses. Oh yes, the sealer has a very strong smell, so you want to make sure you are using it outside on a nice day! Good luck!

I would highly recommend having it done professionally if it is a large area. Our patio is very big and it did most of it myself. It was the worst money I ever saved!

The answer depends on what your cleaning of ? oil stain, can be removed by pouring powdered detergent on a water misted area that is stained, and sprinkling w/ detergent, and allow the detergent to suck up the oil, you may also add more water and brush it into the concrete and let lay for a day or so depending on stain, then pressure wash off.
