After seeing Jonathan's post, I played with the Dicor butyl tape at home and found I could easily stretch it into long snakes. It gets kinda hard like clay and looses some of it's adhesive quality, but still retains some stick. Maybe it needs to be warmed up first? The stuff from SailRite was softer and stickier but hard to get off the paper without tearing it into small pieces unless I used a chisel to cut it away from the paper. PITA.
Bed-It was softer and stickier than Dicor. Either of these butyl tapes may work, but I think Bed-It was a far superior product. (I checked Marinehowto.com and sailboatowners.com and find it's still unavailable.)
