I grafted a Giant Mexican Sugar Apple onto a Cherimoya rootstock and I noticed this liquid oozing out of the tape

The cambiums don't look matched up in the photo. Did you match them up on the other side?
Have you grafted annonas or other plants before? You're not using grafting tape?

I have never grafted annonas before, and I used parafilm to wrap them

Should I redo the graft, or just tie it off with the green tape

...

This is most probably a problem of overpowering sap flow. I have had this many times before and reported it on below thread.

Yeah I watered it a few days and I think that's why it's oozing sap, thanks ☺
