The end of your shirt and a little air from your mouth? That's what I always use.

When I had TTs I bought the cleaning kit. With a felt brush, carbonfiber brush and a bottle of fluid. I think wiping a vinyl with your shirt just gets the dust deep into the grooves, correct me if Im wrong

GuveGlide is good, but its a once or twice thing. You dont want to use it to clean your records every time. Its more of a treatment to keep dust from sticking. Read the can.

I'm confused. Why do you need to clean the serato vinyl? It has no sound quality issue right? So then just a basic cloth would be all you require to clean off the obvious finger marks, not that they matter.

Actually its just the opposite. You want to keep your Serato control records very clean. They see much more use that a normal record would. You want to keep the records clean so they last and give you the best performance. This goes for any record. I quick wipe with your shirt may get you buy, but your not doing your self any favors in the long run. There is no sound issue but there is a control signal issue. The Serato program is reading a signal off that record, and the better that signal is the better Serato will operate.
