I think there is some misunderstanding. I have read the attached link.
This article is largely about rebuilding or servicing the original Quad. His comments in regards to cleaning/dust covers are:
'remove the bulk of the dust with a vacuum cleaner. Use a brush attachment when vacuuming the dustcovers, so as not to rip them.'
I do this sort of thing with original Quads. If the speakers are in working order and just need a cleaning, the dust covers are in intact then yes clean the panels as described. The dust cover film used on the original Quad is much heaver than the dust cover film used on the ESL-63. The film will be brittle after all these decades but if one is careful they can be cleaned.
No one should ever take a vacuum cleaner to a nude Quad panel original or ESL-63. If a Quad panel has gotten to the state it needs to be cleaned, i.e. is making noises, etc. then it needs to be replaced. There is no cleaning that will return it to proper operation.
