I just got a deal on an otherwise gorgeous Montblanc 121, but it was partially so cheap because of a small hairline crack in the cap. The crack is in a bit of an odd place, not at the lip or on a stress point (I think: I'm pretty new to fountain pens so I may be wrong) so I'm not toooooo worried, but I'd like to nip it in the bud before it spreads and the entire cap shatters or something.
I've heard good things about Captain Tolley's Creeping Crack Cure. Would that be sufficient to prevent it from spreading? Will it effect the pen's finish? Or am I better off sending it to a professional for repair?
Attached is a pic of the crack, kind of hard to see but right smack dab in the center of the picture.
