Best product for foundation spalling

Noticed that the foundation in our garage along the exterior walls has some spalling, which I guess is a common thing in cold environments.

I read about this and supposedly with regular maintenance through applying a patching compound, it can be controlled.

Question is, what is the best product to use for this? There are so many concrete repair products out there but I am not finding any that mention specific use for what we need. One Quikrete product I found looked great until it said "for any horizontal surface".

Thanks for any help.

Poured concrete, just the 2" section below the sill plate

Please post a picture so we can see what your seeing.
Likely if it's just above the sill plate there's likely a flashing issue causing it that no patch job will fix long term, but without that picture it's anyone's guess.

It's at our old house that is for sale so I am not there to take a photo but this is exactly what it is:
