Patio needs painting...or something. Pressure washed and thin coat of old paint blew off in places. Full sun in Florida so something that would be cooler on feet. Thanks for and suggestions!!

Is your patio wood or stone? I'd be inclined to keep pressure washing to get all the paint off, then seal it with a clear coat (if stone) or clear stain (if wood). That would be lower ongoing maintenance all around. Not sure about something cooler on the feet, though, especially in that heat!
How about indoor/outdoor carpet.
We also have a large concrete porch in south Florida & 2 German shepherds that play a lot outside. We have pressure washed & painted it several times. Finally we just purchased indoor/outdoor rugs from Home Depot. I use my cordless leaf blower on a regular basis to get rid of the dirt or whatever nature and our dogs bring onto the porch. This has worked wonderfully for us for a few years now. Good Luck š“āļø
