It is glued with wall-paper adhesive, so I guess it's going to stay up. It can be removed though. The door is on the inside of my house, so it won't be out in the weather. I am going to buy some clear polyurethane, but that will have to wait until pay day. 3 or 4 coats of that and I should be good to go. I want to be able to wipe it down on occasion.

The picture was my WIP for another wall. I used the same method for sealing and I get nothing but raves about what I did with brown paper lunch sacks. :thumbup:

I did that technique and after it was glued I burnished it and it was awesome.
