I used some automotive tape as used to hold moldings on cars. Some brands are gray, others white. The stuff I have is black so it doesn't show up under the glass. There are various widths. This was 1/2". Kind of expensive, though, at $25/roll. Good stuff-if the conditions are right it has a death-grip. This stuff is fairly thin, compared to some household weatherstripping tape that can be on the thick side. Just using the sealant works fine, too, just takes a few more minutes. If you make continuous corners with the tape it can kinda bunch up. I'm not sure if that would be easier or harder with a round tube. Another idea would be to use the old-style butyl rubber like what was once used to hold auto windshields in. It stays gummy and is black. I have seen it in tiny ribbons that would work well, probably 1/8" thick would do. Windshields use nothing less than 1/4" which I think would be too heavy.
