are you planning on colouring the backer board different from the cut piece to make t pop a bit? if so that kinda has to be done before they are glued together...I use to read that oiled projects don't stick together with glue that good and can come apart....but in BEST trick I've ever read about gluing your pieces together came from this site. sorry I forgot who stated it though so can't give the person the credit...anyways put some wax paper down and go buy yourself a little foam roller, then roll the glue onto the wax paper and just set the top piece of wood onto the wax paper, it gives the perfect amount of glue onto your piece and it's super fast and covers the entire project perfectly! you also get VERY little squeeze out with this method as well _) .. also put some weights on top of the wood after they are glued to give it a good strong bond , then spray with which ever finishing product i'm using those days.
I have never had any problems with pieces coming unglued doing this method, and it seems to work great for me. I think the important part is making sure you give the pieces time to properly cure and dry before you glue
