For your Oiled media filter

Synthamax Air Filters do not require oil. Service air
filter as needed by cleaning with common non­petroleum all-purpose household cleaner and water.
Simple Green®, Formula 409® or equivalent works
great. Apply cleaner to outside of air filter and allow to
soak. Then flush filter clean from the inside out with a
garden hose and repeat steps if necessary. Do not apply
high pressure water or air to clean filter. Allow filter to
air dry and reinstall.
