How do I fix this? It`s like a 2x2 dip in the garage floor (concrete finish). It sucks in the rain and snow because all of the water gathers there. It`s a smooth finish (typical of most garages) and not rough like a sidewalk. Thank boys!

Check out quikrete.com, they should have a product for you. Not sure if a vinyl patch would work best or a different product. Also check into the resurfacing products, they might make a decent self leveling product. I have the same problem but haven`t looked in to a fix just yet.

Some follow up information for you... Take a look at this product. Sounds like it might be what you are looking for. At the bottom of the page under "Related Projects" there is a pdf the walks you through the process.

I would say it`s about 1/8" of an inch at its lowest point. It might be a little more than that since I haven`t actually measured it, but it`s not noticeable when it`s dry, only when wet. Thanks for the help guys!
I used the vinyl patch to do a few places in my garage (holes - not dips). Cracked like crazy over the winter. For an eighth of an inch, I personally wouldn`t mess with it - it will look worse than having a bit of water standing there.

1/8 is pretty hard to fill. More work than it`s worth in my view. That skim coat doesn;t have anything to hold to. If you absolutely want to though try an epoxy.
Why exactly is something like an 1/8 inch dip such a big deal?
If you have a 2x4 - 8` or so, see if that gives you a better gauge on how deep the dip is.
