I'd really hesitate about making any physical contact. With the mirror being front-silvered, a q-tip is likely to scratch it. What I've done in the past is just used compressed air. Any will-nots that remain on the mirror stay there. They will not affect pictures, and are only marginally annoying when looking through the viewfinder. If I had to use a liquid, it would be distilled water, squirted on, without any rubbing. What doesn't come off stays there without any attempt to remove it. Leaving it on is better than scratching the mirror.
