You may want to purchase the small roll of contact paper of choice, coat a piece of scrap plywood with shellac, let dry and apply the paper.

You will want to be satisfied with the result before you do it for score. Look for the shellac that you can overcoat. This way, if you ever change your mind, you can paint right over the shellac with polyurethane or primer and paint.

Shellac itself is not as water-resistant as poly. It does provide some protection but does a better job of sealing in the oils and glue for overcoat with whatever. I suggest contact paper because it is available, safe and affordable.

Sometimes the edges can loosen especially if there was dust when you laid it down. Then I found some nice extruded vinyl angle at HD. I places that on the side seams where ceiling meets the sides.
