    nothing really will fix it...

    As long as the carcass in intact then you don't need to worry about it.

    Do what most of us do, fill with superglue, then deflate the tyre fully and leave over night, as good as new then and won't expose your cut to more damage.

    +1 to Superglue
    Helps stop the cut spreading and reduces the chances of shards getting into the cut.
