So last night two worlds collided and when they do, watch out...motivation and boredom (the kind of boredom where you can't just sit still and relax). I ended up tearing up the last small section of carpeting in our finished (by previous owner)basement so that i can expand my model shop for where i do all my 3D printing and CNC machining. Anywho, when i pulled up the tack strips for the carpet, they used short but stubborn little nail to hold the tack strips to the concrete. So when i pulled up the strips it left small little divots all around the perimeter.

My plan is to epoxy the floor for now until i find more of the vinyl plank that's in the other part of the basement i refinished 6 years ago. What would be the easiest and fastest way to fill up these divots so that i can epoxy the floor this weekend? It doesn't need to be perfect, just don't want to see the deep chunks anymore.

For reference they range in diameter from a penny to maybe 1-1.5 inches.

Look at your home improvement store in the concrete isle for patch in a tube, Its a concrete mix rock free and spreads easy. Will fill and seal with a putty knife.
