You will probably have to use a microfibre cloth for removing the fingerprints. These are sold at many camera stores and are better than the cloths and lens paper that come in the kits you are talking about. It helps to keep a lens cap or skylight filter on the lens, even if you take it off, when taking photos. You can replace a filter with cleaning marks on it much more cheaply than replacing the lens. Also, if you forget to take off a dirty, fingerprinted filter, you might be surprised at how well you pictures come out, despite how dirty the filter looks.
