The sealer could be lifting or flaking for several reasons. 1, the surface temperature of the concrete was to high when the sealer was applied. 2, To much 'release agent' was left on the surface of the concrete by the original installers prior to sealing denying the opportunity for the concrete sealer to penetrate properly. 3, Coloured pigment was added to the sealer to help 'richen' up the colour but effectively this created a paint rather than a sealer could not penetrate into the concrete properly.
