Patch for asphalt drive

Anyone ever patch a drive to fix a very shallow depression? Just in front of our garage door, the drive has sunk a small amount (not more than an inch or two) and water collects there. Cold patches seem to be for deeper holes. Is there a way I can fill this 4x2 ft depression?

There is a product call "leveling patch paste" here in Canada by ResistOSeal but it is for 3/8 to 3/4 in. crack. For bigger crack like 1 in. it can be mixed with sand and water. Anyway it is a lot more expensive than cold patch which you should use anyway with a wet pestle or a sledgehammer. It will look smoother and a lot better if you finish it with the leveling patch paste.

For clarification, the instruction on the bucket is not very clear. It will work on smaller spot less than 3/8 in.. I will finish the job I began last year and I will fill the little spots with this paste made by a motorcycle stand for example and also to smooth the reparation made with the cold patch. Then I will try to find a sealer dark enough to hide the reparation made on the driveway.

No the instruction stated it is for small crack and I wrote in my other post the instruction were misleading. In fact it can be used for small denivelation as long they are not very deep. The paste will cover the whole area as long as it is not 3 in. deep though it could work if it is mixed with sand and water but it would be very costly and I would not try it myself this much deep. So I told him to use cold patch then finish the job with the paste. In fact he could only use the cold patch but the junction may not look very good. The paste will cover the now not very deep but damn very wide crack, no problem ;oP
