It stays sticky.** A: product doesn't dry stays pliable. Taillight gaskets etc. **Q: Can this strip-calk be used for sealing gaps in sheet metal duct work in home's heating and conditioning system?** A: It could be used, but the color is black. They make duct sealant that is applied with a caulk gun that is meant to seal sheet metal duct work and the color is grey. **Q: How many strips in the package?** A: i am pretty sure there are 60...the package is about 12 inches wide and on the side it says the material is 20 yards (60 feet) **Q: Has anyone used this to seal a 3rd brake light in the roof of a late model pickup truck like a 2015 Ram?** A: This would certainly do the job, BUT it stays sticky forever. It could make removing the light to replace a bulb down the road difficult. On my 2014 Ram, I used MD Weatherstripping 01033 from the local hardware store. It's 5/16" H x 19/32" W. I had to cut wedges from the inside corners to shape it around the light. I used Permatex UltraBlack RTV (the UltraBlack is more flexible when cured than the standard black RTV) at the end joint (centered on the bottom) that I let cure for 24 hours before installing, so it took longer, but so far so good. ## Frequently Bought Together - 3M Strip Calk, 08578, 1 ft Strips, Black, Soft Butyl Rubber, Permanent Elasticity, Joint Filling, Trunk Seams, 60 Pack - Butyl Sealant Tape – Butyl Rubber Sealant,Promote Sealing Purpose- ​autty Tape for Automotive (Car, RV, Marine) for Installing Car Part, Windows, Doors and Windshield etc. - XFasten Butyl Tape Black, 1/2 in x 30 ft x 1/8 in – Easy-to-Work-with Automotive Butyl Sealant Tape, Mess-Free Rubber Caulk for RV, EPDM Putty for Window, Headlight, Roof, Windshield, and Car Doors --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5288603-3m-strip-calk-08578-1-ft-strips-black-soft-butyl](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5288603-3m-strip-calk-08578-1-ft-strips-black-soft-butyl) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
