Sealing a painted patio

I use a combination of paint products and an applicator to produce the look of brick, tile, or flagstone on concrete patios. Since 1991 I have had good luck with it staying on. We use a special water soluble paint.

I have run into a problem when I used this over a product called Cool Deck around a pool. Because Cool Deck is so porous, the Quick Brick is coming off in places. I want to seal around the pool with urethane. Are there any epoxy sealers that will not be slippery, shiny, and turn yellow outside? I have a way to deal with the slippery aspect, but not the shiny or yellowing effect.

Any suggestions?

Thanking you in advance,
