Used duct insulation, had some rolls of drip edge rubber adhesive that I anchored it with.  This is the stuff about 4 or 5 inches wide that goes under the starter row of shingles as underlayment between the metal drip edge and the shingle.  Cuts easily sticks pretty well to non rusted metal.  Wire brushing can promote better sticking.

Your drip edge adhesive reminded me of something they use a lot on roofing jobs here in Ohio - Ice Guard.  It's a rubber sheet that is stuck down before the shingles are put on.  (So that if there is a ice dam that forms on the roof in the winter, the water doesn't seep up under the shingles and through to the plywood sheeting.  (Some cover the entire roof, but others just the valleys and around the edge.  It might be required by law here now.)
