    I just got a couple of these and haven't tested them too much. I used it to CA glue some leather covering a thread on an expensive purse. It kept the mess down to zero and wiped right off when the glue set. http://http://www.rockler.com/produc...FUuCQgodanAA9g

    The shipping is more than the brushes but I bought mine at the store.

    I think the clamping is the critical part of your fix. The mess will sand or scrub off later.

    Might look into some of the black epoxys used for bedding rifle actions.The key to any fix is to get that crack cleaned 100%
    Some dawn detergent in hot water,in an ultrasonic,than allow to dry for several days may be the ticket.
