The spray kind is ok, I would recommend the PJ1 FOAM filter oil in the spray. It is a little thinner and less sticky than the belray but still works good.

Just stay away from the no toil. I have never cursed a oil product as much as I have that stuff!! The biggest problem for me as a mechanic is you dont know the customer has no-toil oil on their filter until you try to use conventional filter cleaner on it, but then it is too late and the stuff becomes a nasty sticky foam that wont go away with any cleaners except the no-toil cleaner! Yuk!

I have no problems with no-toil. It seems to revitalize older filters. It brings older filters back to life. as long as you have the cleaner. But too each his own.
Like I said been using this stuff for 3 yrs with no problems.

Race you later...
