hi there lads just a quickie ive got a pic drive witch we have had for 3 years (cobble affect ) when it was layed i wasnt happy with the color so the chap recolored it after it was sealed then resealed it again with i wasnt happy witch is why he got 600 instead of 2900 but thats another story..anyway as you can imagine some of the color has came off now (its not that bad though)and it is in need of a reseal and i was also wondering if what he done is ok as id really like it more black than what it is at the moment ,what is the best sealer out there and would you recomend recoloring if so with what cheers tim

seems you are not likely ever to be satisfied with the colour... you generally require two coats of sealer ,but if the colour isnt in the imprint it isnt likely to last. black tends to fade rapidly if not sealed right. I think you'ld need a re-imprint to do the change of colour.. have you any pictures? 
suggest you read pioc section of main site.Sometimes a good pic job isnt what the customer imagines

An acid stain might work.
Remove the sealer, stain the concrete and reseal.
