Ended up using this: https://www.amazon.com/Cannondale-Kn...s%2C183&sr=8-3

Had bought some from local Bicycle Chain store couple years ago and never used it. Has an adhesive strip but no paper cover.
Just enough adhesion to keep it in place. Very long strips, stretchy and nicely padded (no extra padding required).. Easiest tape I've ever installed.
Half the price of the Grepp tape. 26, five stare rave reviews on Amazon. Easily removed although I don't know how many times you could do it.
