I used to use TP and nail polish in the 70's to fix them cracks and tears. It worked

Yeah, I used to use plain old model glue.  However, that was back in the 70's too, there might be a better product out there!

I use clear silicon from home depot
Any tube unit can be brought back to life.
I never meet a tube I didn't like.
