Hey Mike,

You're going to get many answers to this, but you might want to try what I've been using. If it is a crack where the edges match up, like yours looks to be, a few coats of rubber cement will work great. It doesn't harden so the cone will still act the same way. Just my 2 cents. Icon_wave
