I used to fix a broken nail with superglue, now I send clients to the drugstore for a $4 kit

Back when I started at a little shop in Dayton, a cracked nail got the Krazy Glue treatment and I told people to deal with it. Now I keep a $4 brush-on nail repair kit in my station and it holds a tip together way longer than glue ever did, no crusty white mess either. A client named Rosa actually pointed the kit out to me after her glue fix popped off at a wedding. What's your go-to quick save for a break, or do you just rebuild the whole nail?
