What's a good way to clean your drums... I just keep collecting dust, Ive just been using a wet rag. Lol, suggestions?
Besides cleaning with a wet towel, and immediately drying them with a nice fluffy towel, I generally find I only need to dust them with a feather duster. I avoid cleaners and solvents because I think over time you're doing more damage or building up this layer of stuff on the drums.
this came up before and I emailed Johnson's wax and they would not recommend Pledge on any lacquered finishes. Proceed caution.

Ever since a bass player showed me one, I've been a devotee of those micro fiber polish cloths they sell in auto parts stores. If it cleans the sweat off my guitar without hurting the finish (and that includes the gunk that builds up on the neck which many folks have tried just about everything over the ages on) then I'm pretty comfortable with using it on fingerprints on my lacquered drums and chrome stands.
I recently used one of the Swiffer dusting cloths that go on a handle (not entirely sure of the proper name) but man did it work nicely. The thing was covered in dust and was still picking it up.
