I did one with roofing mastic, a bit like seam sealer for cars. It's in a tin and it's best warmed up. I cut it with a bit of white spirit to make it spread easier as well. B&Q has something like it, Bostic trowelling grade bituminous mastic

Kind of like a strip of blutack. I wonder if a blutack emergency situation cropped up, if butyl sealant could be used to stick up posters.
