Auto paint stores sell it, can't recall the exact name right now. Just tell them, they will know what ya want.  :2thumbs:

They won't have a clue.  Go to a hardware store or Home Depot and find liquid nails.  The blue tube extreme construction will hold it together better than anything I have ever seen.

Go to the auto body supply store.
Tell them what it's for & what you are doing.
Door skin flutter foam is what comes to mind. Used on newer cars. It has some flexibility to it.
Seam sealer can also be used.

Get the right stuff, it might be a few dollars more but Liquid Nails isn't what you want.  It gets hard compared to the sealer used under the hood, and exposed to heat over time it gets brittle.  If you don't get ghost lines from the metal flexing around it, it'll fall back out in a couple years and you'll be doing it again.  It's great stuff for building a deck or other carpentry work, but not for this.

its called NVH material (noise vibration and harshness) comes in many different mixes. high expanding foams, low expanding foams, others look more like seam sealer ect ect....
3M makes several different kinds, SEM makes some, also Fusor. I am sure there are others. Most will require a special applicator gun to apply. Some paint stores will loan it to you.  As others have said get the right material for the job, you'll thank yourself for it.
