    Hope it works out OK. From what you say the dye getting sucked in should be obvious. Squirt the dye right at the crack. For your shallow depth you can probably use an eyedropper or a basting syringe or something similar.
    Keep us informed.

    Ended up using a couple of drops of the pH reagent, and it got sucked up immediately. So, finally got the Loctite underwater epoxy recommended by SalemCastles and it seems to be working like a charm. It didn't go on as smoothly as I had hoped, but considering I was working underwater, I can't expect perfection, right?

    Thanks again guys ...
