To answer your original question, the first thing I would try to remove thr stain from the slab is a high-power pressure water, a gas powered one not one of the little electric ones. Hot if possible, and a good cleaner/detergent. Its amazing what you can blast out of a slab with a pressure washer.
If that doesn't work at least it'll be clean for the next step. You could either coat it (like garage floor epoxy) or resurface it like Akajust said.
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

Might have to bite the bullet Seller won't give credit said take it or leave it. No place to go and out of time. We are supposed to close in a week. I hate being backed in a corner. Been trying all year to buy a house. I've had a terrible few weeks and this is the last thing I needed right now. I'm at my whit ends. So much is going wrong in life right now.

Man, I’m tellin you if I were in your shoes, knowing what I know about owning a problem home, I would seriously take that down payment and buy a camper before I went through with that deal. I’d truly rather live in a camper with my wife and four kids before going through all that and losing all the money I lost again.

If it were me, I'd ask for 15K off price, tear it off myself, and salvage what you could of the material.

LOL you are wanting to tear out a patio slab because you don't like the color? Get you a pressure washer and blast the stain off the concrete. In todays market the seller probably will make more if you do bail on him. You paid a deposit at signing.Just looking at the size it will cost over 10,000 to pour that slab. He ain't fixing that ...
You sure that's stain and not colored sealer. Some people do that to make it NOT look like concrete. I’m pretty sure he’s talking about tearing down the patio roof, not tearing out the concrete
