Smitty says: Andy I don't think the original stuff exists any more. The
nearest thing I have found is a material used by RV repair places called
strip caulk. It comes in a roll like masking tape. Is about 1/16 thick
and 3/4 wide. Not too expensive. Can be wadded up in a clump if that's
the way you want to use it. Actually it is a bit stiffer than the
original stuff but it does work. Naturally, less malable in cold weather
