Re-oiling Green Filter

My serach turned up zippo on the amount of oil needed to "re-oil" the green filter once cleaned. The Green website wasn't any help either.

It says not to over-oil but does anyone know how much to spray?

I figured a light coating with the spray bottle would be logical, but what the hell do I know?

Thanks!

Can't help you with the green filter, but when I had a K&N on my Miata I always oiled very sparingly- just enough to darken the gauze to a medium red color.

BTW, can I ask where you bought the green drop-in? I've been thinking about trying one...

Thanks!
