Rubber roof repair with limited supplies
I had to make a repair to the rubber on the roof which involved removing the front termination bar. I have one tube of dicor self leveling sealant and about 40 feet of 2" wide Eternabond tape. I have...

No, Mr Wiz, I am such a spaz I can't pull the clear plastic underlay off and lay out the Eternabond like you are supposed to as you go along and keep it straight. Not enough hands! So I would get the clear part off all the way from shorter lengths, but even the shorter lengths would get in the breeze.
With any luck the OP is not such a spaz as I am, and it will go better. :)
---OP, You can overlap Eternabond and it will stick. You still have to sort of "work it in" to activate the glue. There are rollers for that, but I just do it by hand. Probably not so good, but it seems to work Ok.
I am not clear on the "termination bar" but if it is the moulding piece across the roof at the cap, usually that is Dicored down original, so a repair would be to cover the whole thing with wide Eternabond. (at least that is one way).
So if that is all off now, I don't see any advantage in putting it down over tape and taping over it above that. Why not just put it down without the Butyl under it and the Dicor above it, and just go straight to the Eternabond over it all?
