Old concrete repair - please help

Hi I have a old porch that had some gross carpet on. I removed the carpet and used an angle grinder w/ diamond cup to remove the glue. I’m going to pressure wash next. Here’s where I need help. What should I do to keep it from deteriorating more? I see some cracks and “crumbly looking parts near the edges and underneath the edges that go around the outside. Looking around I’ve seen some crack repair tubes of paste or something. Are those good? Do I need to use a “recap” and if so can that be used on the vertical parts? Or do I just need some kind of sealant? Or all three? Thank you in advance for any product suggestions and process steps! submitted by /u/logan0921 [link] [comments]
