Any reasonable stocked body supply shop should respond to 'dum dum'

^. No, not dum dum.

It's butyl cork insulation tape.

Depends on what you are trying to do.
Fill a void, insulate or seal.
Although there are dedicated products and brand names used
in many cases you can utilize a generic product from a local hardware store.

What are you trying to "seal". ?

I am trying to seal around the two line coming out of the evap. box in the smugglers box, I think what I am looking for is called prestite tape?

Prestite tape, although that Amazon link is super expensive.

I went to the local A/C supply house and asked for that, and got a lot of weird looks. They called it "cork tape". Maybe also try "tar tape". I think it was $12-15 for a roll about the same size as what is shown in the amazon link, which is enough tape for your car, your friend's car, the local PCA club's cars, and half of the state you live in.

that's what I was looking for, thanks, now I will have a reason to talk to my new friend, the amazon delivery person.

thanks again Lorne M.

To bad its not reasonable to ship what I have left of the roll I'll never use. Anyone can have it for free.
