If stains are present under any surface, they can only be removed if the upper layer of material is removed. Even in such a case, if the color is being pushed down by the upper layer material, the case would be the same as it would not be obliterated. But no worries—there is still one option for you: painting over those stains. This can give your concrete a new look, and you can have an even-looking surface with little effort. On the contrary, if your case is reverse or opposite, it doesn't have to be covered or sealed by other materials when there is hope that it can be removed easily using different cleaning materials. However, do not use any other material over the stain before removing it. Otherwise, it will have the same effect on the material's color and prevent it from being removed.
