Heres another method to consider, i used black silicone to stick the bulkhead tape down and applied Polycell self adhesive draught excluder to the underside of the bonnet.
No tacks or rivets and the bonnet paint is protected by the soft draught excluder.
I used a narrow 'P' profile straight out of the packet in its double width form so it makes a wide seal. No vaseline or grease required and is cheap to replace if it ever wears out. Also makes up for uneven gap between bulkhead and bonnet but compresses easily
