How to stop water from coming in the door panels

I have a 65' C10. Every time I wash the truck water drips from the inside door panels. I removed the panel and put a 1/4 beed for plumbers putty around the lower half of the panel and then screwed it back on...but it still leaks. How do I seal this up?

Re: How to stop water from coming in the door panels

Pull the panels again. Grab some vapor barrier from your auto paint supplier and cut them out a few inches larger than the opening. Clean the upper area at the top, inside opening and attach the vapor barrier from the inside and let it drape down past the lower panel edge. You will need to cut around the window crank and the door handle actuator rod, make the slits as small as you can. This will allow the water to hit the backside of the drape and fall past the panel
