I purchased the Rustoleum epoxy kit for my garage and I need to patch a few knicks here and there.

What should I use? Who should be stocking the Rustoleum 2-part patch kits? Lowes and HD do not..

Do you have an OSH close to you?

home depot has an anchoring epoxy that woild work well to fill and the sand or grind flush... the catch is you need a dual/ side by side caulk gun. If you have access to one great! If not buying them at home depot is like 80 bucks or something crazy. Otherwise they have some moisture cure caulk like products that will work fine if you give them 24 hrs.

We are talking about smaller nicks if it is anything really large buy a cementatious patch product and some bonding agent.

Moisture cure? Any suggestions? I looked at tons of products, but couldn't find anything that matched the description..

I think home depot has a construction sealant made by sikka that might work... check the packaging and see that it is "paintable"... The anchoring epoxy would probably be better if you have a lot of patching but again it is kinda pricey.

Good Luck

I bought epoxy patch at Kelly Moore paint store. If you use concrete patch you need to wait 28 days before you paint. The epoxy patch you can paint in 8 hours. Also if you have expansion joints, there is a calk like material I bought at Lowes. It is rubbery, so the epoxy might flake off after a while. Mine has held up so far but it has been only under a year. My floor is tan, the expansion calk is gray.
