Question Looking for: Door Access Cover Black Sealant?

What is that black sealant material that Toyota/Lexus uses to help seal the door panel access cover? I dont know if its gasket maker type material or something more specific, because considering the ages of these cars, I feel once you peel it off it wont stick firmly as it used to.


The black sealant line around the tan cover used to help shield the window motor and regulator.

Have you considered 3M™ Strip-Calk (Part Number 08578, 3M ID 60980019552, UPC 00051135085783) a soft butyl rubber caulking material...? https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-...3194020&rt=rud
A DIY used it in the following video.
