How to update old concrete walkway
We have an old home and the walkway to the door is old concrete that looks terrible. How can you update it without having to re-pour?
The least expensive way I know is to get you a tub of this:

Then get a concrete stain and paint it. The stain comes in different colors now.
I can tell you what we did. May not be best or most sound but it did last until we sold our house to be moved, over fifteen years later. The house was forty years old when we moved in and had a concrete porch in very poor shape. My husband had been given some Portland cement. We mixed it up in a wheelbarrow and he poured it and leveled it, let it dry a good couple of weeks, then we put cheap indoor outdoor grass carpet over it.
