I looked at the Paperwhite user guide, which simply states:

"Clean the screen with a soft cloth; be careful not to wipe it with anything abrasive."

The user guide also cautions people not to dry a wet Paperwhite by placing it in a microwave oven. I got a bit of a chuckle from this, although I suspect someone at some point has probably tried this.

Anyways, I use a microfiber cloth slightly dampened with tap water, and this has worked fine with three Kindles. The water where I live is very alkaline, so I may start using distilled water instead.
