I apply one layer of glue to both rim and tub and leave for 24 hours. Then apply another layer of glue to both, put the tape onto the rim, add a layer of glue to it and then mount the tub. Pump up to 80 psi and check if it's straight, deflate and straighten if required, then reinflate and leave to dry for 24 hours. I'd give it a bit longer before adding the aquaseal.
I'd never trust tape alone on a cyclocross tub, the low pressures and forces applied to the tub would be too much for tape and you'd roll it in next to no time.
