Default Impact Crack - Martin OM-21

Hello Everyone

I have an OM-21 where another guitar was knocked over and its tuning machine impacted the shoulder and left an ugly crack (see pictures). I have checked with a flashlight and I don't see any crack on the inside of the guitar nor can I see the light coming through the crack.

I thought about using some thin cyanoacrylate and let it run in and then scrape with Frank Fords taped off razor blade trick.

What do you guys think?

Thanks

-Pat

Looks like mostly finish damage so yes a CA fill should work nice. I would use medium CA and pad it on.
