I'd probably try to clean that spot a bit better. There is no need to Vacuum impregnate the fly with wax, and I think putting silicon on the fly is overkill. What I'd do is heat the portion of the wax tire that fell away (probably with a hair dryer) till it became soft enough to smoosh back on to the fly, do that and mold it back into the shape it should be in. If that proved impossible I'd try making a mold or form around the fly to pour molten wax in to cast a new wax tire.
The wax can always be remade if it fails, but silicone is going to be hard to remove if bad.
