Thought my old lens cleaning cloths were fine until I ruined a $200 front element

That happened to a buddy of mine with a vintage Nikon lens he was trying to clean. He thought a regular microfiber cloth would do the trick but it just pushed dirt around and scratched the coating. Now he keeps a stack of proper lens wipes in his camera bag and changes them out every few months. I just use those pre-moistened Zeiss wipes now and haven't had a problem since.
