Personally I don't like the newspaper but a couple paper towels work. Dampen one, not soaked. Moisten the deposits to begin softening, then dab into clean ash, knock off the excess then scrub away. I use circular motion and it works like a charm. Once all loosened wipe away with clean damp paper towel, works really well.

Ball up sheet of newspaper and dampen under running water.
Open up door and swab glass . . . if the glass is still hot it may dry instantly and you may need to rinse out the newspaper and do this again.
Take balled up dry sheet of newspaper and use to clean up any water/fly ash that is still on glass if necessary.

Just buy a container of the Rutland stove glass cleaner for under $4, lasts a long time and no mess to worry about!

The key here is to dampen the newspaper; do not soak it. Then just touch the ashes and it works very well.
