You get a good bond using that process. The al;uminium will still slowly oxidise if the edges are not dealed and that will be difficult with a rubbing strip.
Glass is much harder than aluminium so a better wear rubbing surface. I just use 400g triaxial tape for protecting contact areas. Could achieve similar toughness with three layers of 200gsm tape. There is no deterioration issue with glass on glass.

Then add what ever you want to bond on with epoxy bog and glass or whatever.
