I don't know, but I have grafted in the past. I have a damaged Doug Fir and plan to trim the damaged bark in the shape of a vertical eye in case there are insects under the torn bark [only remove what is necessary].
I'll then take bark from another Doug Fir that I'll be cutting down. Clean only the old wound with mild soap and water-add no sealants etc- and then apply the freshly, unwashed tree bark to the wound and wrap with Duct Tape. Check it every so often and don't let the tape remain more than 8-12 weeks. By then I am hoping the new bark is accepted by the damaged tree.
