Taking care of leather door cards?

[StudioWizard]

Hey all

I've cleaned up my black leather door cards (2005 2.5i) and they look pretty nice now, but I'm wondering if I should apply a leather protector to them. Has anyone got a recommendation for the best way to protect the door cards? Are they genuine leather or...??

Thanks!

Usually leather is plastic coated to protect it.

This is on 90% of leather products, including cars.

Cleaning with bilt hamber surfex HD gets me the best results.
No need to add anything afterwards.

Upon doing a little more research, I believe my door cards are not leather, but leatherette instead. The leather door cards don't have the uniform pattern seen on the dash board. Since mine has that same uniform pattern, it's not leather.
