Cobb/Green panel filter cleaning

[TheStig]

How do we clean these guys? Used to be they were all K&N clones and you just use their cleaner and treatment spray. Now so many of them are dry filters and the cleaner/treatment will ruin them.

So do i clean it with water and just let it dry then re-install? Or do i treat it as a K&N and clean then oil it.

I hate asking that, but i dont want to ruin 50$

Cobb and Green are both pre-oiled filters. I think it's similar to the K&N process for their oiled filters. Treatment then oil. I think Green Filter offers the kits on their website.

I'll probly end up just buying new ones every 10-15k. Too paranoid to clean and oil it wrong.
