I like the super soft long pile grey ones at Target sold as automobile detailing cloths; they really get the grunge out of the grooves. Check out the thread about steam cleaning; I now use a cheap steam cleaner and these cloths to wipe and dry. Easy, simple, and better than my Nitty Gritty!
Micro Fiber Cloth for Record Cleaning
Anyone using these? Someone on the Steriophile forum suggested that they're superior to carbon fiber brush. I bought a bag of 25 at Sam's today and started using them. They do indeed seem to get down in the groves. I played several brand new records which I hadn't scrubbed with Disc Doctor fluid and brushes and all were VERY quiet. I tried wiping the carbon fiber brush with micro fiber cloth and it did seem to clean the brush well, but the brush didn't grab into the grooves as well.
Be careful. One slipped out my hands and went spinning toward my one-hour old Sumiko Blackbird. Thankfully I grabbed the cloth before it wrecked the bird.
