new rope gasket-got some frays at end-how do I fix them? glue? cut? ??

I installed a new rope gasket and it came out great....except for the very end...where the two ends meet...I have some frays can I use the same glue I used to glue in the rope to glue these frays down to the rope?..or??..should I have fixed the frays before installing??...let me know what to do..thanks!!

some material you can take a lighter to and actually melt it so it stops fraying. most poly cord is like this.
if you have extra, try it on a sample piece first. This may not work, depending on your material.

And the gasket said to the bartender.....Oh no, sorry sir, I'm a frayed knot.

always used the hi-temp silicone that I glued it with
works fine

Same here....just use a little Hi-Temp silicone and "glue" the frayed ends together.
