This gets brought up from time to time so I figured I'd take some pics of the line I sealed earlier this morning and post them. This line wasn't effecting anything, but it was taking in water so I wanted to get it sealed to avoid problems down the road.
The first thing I do is make sure the crack is clean and dry. Next, using blue painters tape I tape along the line making sure I have a good seal right against the crack. You don't have to use tape, but for me it makes clean up easier and it sort of funnels the glue down in the crack. I used Great Planes thin CA here because this crack was relatively tight, but they also make a medium and a thick version if a larger void needed to be filled. After the taping is finished I start dripping the glue down into the crack and keep doing this until it stops taking it in. The CA is water thin and really works well at seeping down in the cracks. When it's taken its fill I let it dry then remove the tape and sand the area smooth and it's good to go.
Stand by for a few more pictures.
