I was thinking the same thing. I don't believe any product is actually penetrating the wood, therefore, there is no need to treat (polish) it as wood.
It's going to look the same if you do nothing at all. All that should be required is to wipe the dust off of it with a damp towel.

probably apply a thin coating of a finishing wax as it's probably some kind of urethane or polyurethane coating. So treat like car paint.

Right. You're working on polyurethane.
