I believe it’s just butyl tape

And I finally learned to by 2 or 3x what I think I'll need. If you've got any leftover, you'll end up using it eventually. Butyl tape

Some of the stuff I've seen used to stick the clear plastic barrier to the door looks like it is applied from a tube, like with a caulking gun. Looks like mirror mastic.

That product does not appear to be available in the US market,
at least not home depot in the US.

Duct tape works rather well.

min sure they have a similar product as it’s used to seal vapor barriers in building construction.

Tyvek tape at lowes or home depot works well also... sticky, waterproof and as fjbj40 mentioned, is used in construction for vapor barriers.

I used butyl tape from Amazon which still seems to be for sale. Had a lot left over but I only did one door.

Amazon product ASIN B07CTQ67X9
Matched the factory style tape that was already on my cruiser, perhaps a bit thicker. Nasty stuff and hard to remove from your hands.
