I was told that painting is the better alternative. The stick on material traps moisture and the mechanic reported corrosion on such wing walks that, when they tried to rip off the tape, the rivets would come with it and stick on the tape.

Still climbing at 100 ft/min, 75mph. Upon landing the right side wing walk paint had flaked a square foot piece off. I assume there must have been some entrapped air that lifted it off, probably helped along by past fuel overflows, cold temps -5F. Any suggestions as to either the wing walk paint or the safety tape would be the way to replace it.
