Printed concrete driveway maintenance

[Jay003]

Hi! Hoping someone can confirm my approach to maintaining my printed concrete driveway. It’s probably 6 years old and is looking a little tired. I’m thinking to….

1. Clear any pockets of weeds between cracks
2. Remove mastic
3. Pressure wash
4. Mastic between joints
4. Reseal

I wasn’t too sure re the hairline cracks, perhaps again small amount of mastic pre reseal?

Any advise welcome (bit of a novice)

I never bother putting any mastic or other sealer in cracks on ours before or after presssure washing then resealing . Do you know you only need a 50-50 mix of sealer and thinners just to reactivate the original sealer.

Great thank you!
Is there a particular thinner and sealer you use?

I use xylene thinners and sealer from here https://elitecrete.co.uk/contact-us/
