We used some amazing concrete paint and it still looks good a year later. After each winter we do have to clean it up but my kids just scrubbed it and used a hose on it yesterday. Looks great still.
Hi Cathy, you could clean the driveway really well, tape of a wide (6-12") area on each side of the driveway and paint it a contrasting color to the concrete. Maybe stencil some design onto the strip just painted or paint the entire driveway, use a stencil to make the driveway look like bricks or oh so many other creative ways. Perhaps these ideas will inspire you to think of other ways. Consider it a big canvas but ensure if you have an HOA that it is within their rules.
