Sealing doors
I use rope caulk between the metal and the plastic barrier. Seems to hold up fine for years. Gently heating it with a heat gun will let you squish it easier.

The PO of my current car (1971 Spider) didn't put any moisture barriers
inside the doors, and as a result the (really nice!) interior door
panels rotted. I've since aquired NOS door panels, but don't want them
to rot as well. What, exactly, should I use as a moisture barrier
between the interior panel and the inside of the door itself? Also,
what's the proper way to attach the stuff? I know from previous
experience with a different car that duct tape, for example, shrinks and
eventually loses its stickiness in the face of moisture.
NOTE: the car has been repainted, and all such existing barriers were
removed, so I don't really know where to start. I've got a home depot
less than 5 mins from my house, I just need to know what to look for.
Thanks again!
