I have a long “cut” to the middle of my reed. Can this still fix it?

What can I use in place of fingernail polish?

[@jonesdoublereedquicktips4743]

In place of fingernail polish, you may use Duco cement. However, nail polish may be less toxic than cement which is why we recommend nail polish. Good question, thank you!
