Why are people so cheeaaaaap. Safety seems to be somewhere in 23rd place for people. Accept the tire is dead and get a new tire. A tire boot is an emergency thing to get you home or to the nearest shop beyond that, the sidewall is done. If it truly is a small cut and doesn't bulge I guess I would monitor it very closely and still probably just get a new tire to be sure.
