I think you could use a little spackle and then sand it smooth when it dries, Jim.
Hi, you can use drywall compound and a very wide putty knife to spread a layer over the dip, light sanding to smooth it, use a flat or matte finish ceiling paint and it will hide most flaws as well.
I would sand it first, to make sure all of the loose paint is off. Then spackle and sand again.
