Filling voids in concrete joint before epoxy??

When I removed my sill plate the concrete nails pulled away small sections of concrete from the joint. Most are about 1/2" deep by a couple inches across, with the largest being 2"x 1'. What is the best material/product to fill these voids? I plan to grind it all flush after filling, and prior to coating it with PPG epoxy.
Thanks for any advice.

We would recommend using an epoxy mortar which we carry. This product adheres well and is stronger than concrete. Make sure to clean out the area well so there is no loose or flaking material.

Thank you for the reply and suggestion. I'd like to get it done in the next couple of days, so ordering it may be a last resort. Are there any other options, or where could I find epoxy mortar locally in Houston?

Thanks again!

I just used ArmorPoxy’s product and it went down easily. Filled some of the cut with sand, mixed the epoxy 1/1 then smoothed it on with a putty knife and ground the edges with a grinder. IMG_3782.jpg

What about thin cracks. Razor blade thickness?
