You could pick up some clear-coat "boat bottom" paint. It has
enzymes in it to help prevent rot etc. I bought a gallon off Ebay,
and of course it's waterproof and it can be sprayed, brushed
etc. I got it to use on wood and the insides of door panels and/or
whatever else needs protection from moisture or whatever, so it
should do the same job on cardboard.
