You absolutely can and should still place a layer of parafilm over the top to hold pressure downwards on this type of graft. Not that it could not work this way with a 75-80 success rate especially so if you had that parafilm a little more snug. I just don't like to settle for 75-80 success. Given the type of graft this is, you should be able to apply a top layer now as the graft was done today, but typically you want to apply the top layer as you are working and not as an after thought.

 When I graft with parafilm I like for that parafilm to be pulled or stretched thin enough that I can then wrap my graft so tight that it will literally want to burst out of the seams. The more practice you get with this the easier it will be.
