I think that's what I'm going to do, just to be safe. I don't want anything interfering with that joint more than is necessary. Tack in place with CA, insure square, straight, and level, and then epoxy in place using the heat gun to heat up the epoxy and make it flow into the already tight joint. Once that's done...sand, sand, sand, and then I might be ready to sand some more before starting to apply the finish.
