FWIW, Advance Auto has the K&N for 25% off with homepage coupon. KN also recommends a cleaning and refresh kit. Evidently the refresh spray helps collections particulates. Does anyone with the KN use their special cleaner and refresh kit?
I just use Simple Green or Dawn to clean the filter. After it dries, I spray on a little Febreze. The Febreze doesn't last more than a day or two, but neither does the K&N refresher spray. Personally, I doubt the K&N refresher spray has any effect on filter efficiency or capacity - after all, it's a cabin air filter, not an engine air filter.
