Tape!?!?!
Are there any kinds of Tape that will keep water out, but not damage paint AT ALL.
My tops leak and I cover my car, the cover is water resistant, but not water proof, so the car still gets wet, just not buckets full from the sky.
Is there any kind of Tape or anything that I can put over the front and back, and also center support of my t-tops that wont damage my paint at all when I take it off, but is also maybe 1 1/2" to 2" thick, so its enough to cover the T-top-roof or windshield gap enough to hold out water.

How about that blue tape that is about 2" thick that the dealers use sometimes to tape the wrapping on somenew cars? or is that only on at the windows, I forget.
