OK, Gorilla tape it is.

I suspect they might all do it eventually, with enough exposure to the elements, but we've had hundreds of them out there for 5+ years that are still fine. I've been putting that clear Gorilla tape over the LEDs on all of our ePMP APs, after we had the sticker come loose on a couple of them, and it seems to be working pretty well. I also used it on some Rockets that had this issue (but were still working fine, oddly enough) and it seemed like it sealed it up pretty nicely.

Is this a common problem, as in will they all eventually do this? This was on a mast facing east, so the back was exposed to the west wind. The holes behind the mast seem to have suffered less. At first I thought they had been pecked by birds, but there was no sign whatsoever of bird poop, so I don’t think that’s it. I was thinking maybe we should put a piece of Super 88 vinyl tape over the LEDs at new installs, we don’t use the LEDs much anyway. But also I see there is clear Gorilla repair tape that claims to be UV resistant and suitable for outdoor use. Maybe we just put a strip of that over the LEDs?
