3M strip caulk re-packaged. have used it for years. (real 3M version)

Also avail at your local big box store (Lowes etc) is a very similarly 
packaged product in the weather strip area....
is actually closer (is) soft window chauking in strips (5-6 parrallel in 
a roll) its the same stuff used under you chrome trim over the 
windshield and etc, light tan in color never hardens works great!
