I can't say they didn't/won't try to remove/cover it further, but on another article it's at least dry (and seemingly not obstructed) pointing to the removal as calculated by Banksy as others have suggested.

Perhaps being a historic site, paint is not really an option instead needing a more costly restoration to obscure it.
