I've tried d-limonene and a 175 with a nylon concrete brush but it ain't budging.

Is that concrete s'posed to look like crap?
(for some reason, people like new stuff to look like clapped out azz)

if not, and it's just a worn/cracked concrete floor...

go nuke then
Lacquer thinner, scrapper and finish with lacquer thinner saturated MF towels.

if you're into huffing paint, you'll love the stuff.
If not, provide plenty ventilation ...and don't smoke while in use..

It's a city cafe, VERY neglected. Here's a section before. He said he got it re-polished for a bargain...Aggregate was unevenly exposed throughout and obviously pretty etched from the spills that hadn't been mopped up properly.

If the footprints are underneath the polish, you need to strip first.
