I don't recommend using CA as a base for any other finish. I find CA to be extremely brittle and subject to flaking. I prefer the bond strength of epoxy for that very reason. The biggest issue I see with epoxy finishes later is that people tend to use an epoxy that continually cures or has little to no flexibility.

I have not made a veneer from stabilized or stabilized a veneer other than to layer veneers into billets and stabilize them for turning later. I don't know about whether or not it would help this situation, but I would believe it to and would say that it is worth a try.
