Wrap the free edges with 1 1/2" masking tape before weatherproofing.
I dragged out my copy of Paper Houses (Sheppard, Threadgill and Holmes. Schocken Books, New York, 1974). It's pretty good on cardboard constructions. The weatherproofing methods they list (p. 74) are:
Nothing
Boiled linseed oil
Copal varnish
Polyurethane paints
Resin-based paints
Fiberglass
Concrete
Other
