How to clean front lens of telescope... SAFELY!

Hi all - I've now got a couple of newbie finger prints on the front lens of my Celestron - wondering what's the best way to get them off? Will I risk ruining the coating on the lens? I've read that a mix of 40% isopropyl alchohol and filtered water is a good way to go, but with what kind of wipe? I'm freaked out cause I went to wipe the marks and the lens is quite dusty too - the marks got a little worse when using cotton pad and tincy bit of iso alchohol... any assistance greatly appreciated!!
