I have used that method to relive the blood pressure under a mashed one but not a split finger nail.
Pics!
I take it that the crack runs below the hyponychium (aka the quick). If not, I'd just clip it instead of letting it drive me up a wall snagging on everything it comes in contact with.
No pix, and it was above the quick, Dave. But it was wanting to extend further, so I stop-drilled and then trimmed the nail short; otherwise it would have kept on getting worse.
I find Maybelline Express Finish to be helpful in such cases, and more durable than 5 minute epoxy. Clear, of course, in my case. Would probably work well for sealing primers.
My medic always provided the shot-size needles for such use. For blood blisters under the bed of the nail, a 16 gauge blood-draw type needle worked best.
My doc used a straightened paperclip, heating it in his pipe lighter. He prefered that to a needle as the hole was bigger, and the heat from the hot paperclip melted through the nail.
