Default Any tips to match new cement patch to old concrete?

For tan matching, the only thing I've had some decent luck with is to mix
course "Play Sand" with the cement, 1 to 1 or half and half. If the old
stuff's also very light gray and just dirty, then power-wash it or bleach it
back to new with the rest of the sidewalk...don't do any sand. Do a little
sample before you commit, since you might have to go to a dirt mix or a dye.
