Unless you are quite careful with the trimming the Gorilla Tape's edges will fray and get caught in the bead, causing small leaks.
I'd use two layers Stans rim tape. https://www.notubes.com/shop/tubeless/valves-tape

Tried Kapton tape last week, application was no harder than Tesa 4289 (the same as Stans) it was cheaper, and has held up fine under 500km or riding. Very very light if your into that as well.
