What to use on alcantara to prevent stains?

The bmw performance wheel and seats are alcantara. What product do they put on them to prevent stains.

I have some alcantara interior bits that I would like to protect.

I've read on a few other detailing forums that Leather Master Nubuck Protection is good stuff to use on Alcantara for protection. That's the opinion of others, I don't have any first-hand experience.

Here's some information on cleaning (and maintaining) it, right from Alcantara. It's a few different languages, English is on pp. 12-19.

I'm loving your new trim, by the way. Very unique and looks awesome, don't let the haters hate.
