likely dumb question about sidewall leak...

I finally found (I believe) the source of a slow leak that has been driving me nuts. It has been taking 10-20 days to drop my tire pressure from 36lbs to about 28lbs and trigger my tire pressure warning (not TMPS). Any reason not to try a little Super Glue in this little gash?

depends on the weather
not something I would suggest as moisture or other contaminants have most likely already gotten in the opening which can cause corrosion of the bead wire
