Do you use covers or dust your gear?

My gear has become really dusty. Partly from work and partly due to me working more on the software side lately. When you dust, that crap flys everywhere. So then you're left with using some lightly damp paper towels to stick to the dust and pick it up. Can be a little messy and it takes time to get every nook and cranny. Covers are simple, but you don't get to look at your as much. Though, I'm thinking I might try finding some covers. Any ideas of covers to use? Maybe I should just use some towels.

I wondering what you guys like or think is the better way to go. The only reason I'm thinking covers is because I hate playing with gear and it's all dusty feeling on the keys, knobs, and buttons. Somehow it's irritating. I use to dust, but I lost my duster and am left with the paper towel method.

Also, on a side note, do you find it more distracting or troublesome (even though it's only removing the cover) to have to remove and put back the covers everytime you play?
