Yes, I've been using K&N cleaning/oiling system for several years.

I just use some light soap to clean the filter and rinse it.

You can get the UNI kits from Bryan at DPP pretty reasonably priced. I like the fact that the outer sock of the UNI comes off with all the heavy stuff to clean in the sink!!! Makes life much easier...

I oil the foam outside part then squeeze to distribute the oil evenly.

Then reinstall the foam over the inner filter element.

Wearing surgical gloves helps a bunch with the after service clean-up.

You can clean them both is the inner one looks dirty.

I just cleaned the outer one last time.
