As mentioned, you could seal it with nail polish which works very well. If you actually want to repair the crack then I would say it's more pain that it's worth.

I participated an older thread on this issue.
My mystic dream JP6 has cosmetic cracks everywhere
Only thing to do is to wait for it to get worse and re-finish the guitar :'(

What you can do is sand down those cracks in the body and be careful as to not go through the finish. Then finish sand the whole body with 600g and lay down a new clear. If you're going to go the spray can route I recommend this stuff. I've done a number of guitar bodies with this when I didn't have access to a booth and it's worked flawlessly.
