I'm looking for that nasty sticky goopy stuff that holds the plastic weathershield sheeting to the door behind the door panels.

i imagine good double sided tape could work but its not terribly reusable should i have to get back inside the door like the original goop is. that poster tack stuff is similar but not as agressive and super expensive for the length and probably not very good for the outdoor temp ranges.

any other stuff that works well or sources for it?

We use butyl tape at work for many things, it should work well.

I've used 3M #8578 strip caulk with good results, and it doesn't make a big mess if you have to pull the weathershield off later.
