[sdhardcoregamer]

All AEM filters are cleanable.

AEM's Dryflow filters are gray and look like this:



Otherwise they will be red and oily.

Buy the Dryflow filter recharge kit. It comes with two bottles of cleaner.

If you don't want to do that or don't have the time, just get a bucket of clean water, add a bit of Simple Green slosh the filter around a bit, dump the dirty water out, fill the bucket again with clean water, slosh the filter around, and just let the filter air dry.
