I've been using a Milty DuoPad (velvet - short-fibre pile)pad cleaner for 20+ years...brilliant for cleaning - especially the vey fine 'powdery dust' that lies at the groove bottom (and which the C-F cannot remove..).However, it's pointless telling these guys that they're no good (the C-F brushes that is .. ;~))) - as they even use them Wet..
..No wonder it's called the Asylum!The velvet pad is far preferable..you won't damage the LPs either (scratches..)...try a DuoPad though - double-sided - lasts for years...just a few $'s
If static is a real probem when 'dusting-off' LPs then you could have two velvet pads..the first to clear away the debris..the second barely 'moistened' using a fine 'atomiser' spray.
That will release the static charge from the LP with a 'once round the block' clean.
