I also clean my shirts with the sensor - the sensor has embedded auto 
cleaning, my shirts don't. 
I wish I had a full frame I-phone so I could also do the bedsheets.
Philippe, waiting for progress to be made in the textile industry.

I feel the same way Ted!
I have some swabs but have never used them.
If my sensor ever needs to be cleaned like you I'll have a technician do it.
Bulb air has worked for me. And having the lens clean before I put it on the
camera. Which means I blow on it and wipe it off with my shirt tail.
