leather cleaning

i bought the two leather cleaner products from Zaino (Z9 & Z10). It's recommended to use a soft brush to rub in the Z9. i'm a little worried that this will damage the leather. any advice on the process for this?
second, is a 100% standard cotton towel good for Z10?

Just use a soft cloth.

I use mink oil after the leather is cleaned.

Cotton applicators to apply, micro towel to buff it.

^ at this point it doesnt matter what he uses to apply or buff it... so yes he can use either MF or cotten to apply or buff.
