You know those clear glue, enamel, sealant, or whatever you call those things you put around the foot of a guide after you wrap them?

 

What can you do if they crack? One of my rods have 2 "hard glue" that are cracked. Is there anything I can do to fix other than to re-wrap the guide all over again?

epoxy is the best, electrical tape is something you must have out there when you're fishing, it can quick fix and make you fish again but just temporary fix, If you like to fix ... rather fix once and use epoxy.
