After carefully rereading your question, it occurred to me that there might be an extra point that needed clarifying.

I try to get the join aligned on both sides before I start wetting out the tape. However, if it is too hard to get a perfect match on both sides, I just get one side right and the second side close. The second side need not be perfect, but it needs to be pretty close.

As I said, I like to wait more than just a few hours so that I can manipulate the second side if necessary without any danger of the first side being affected.
