Cleaning Halltech filter
Hey Guys,
I have a Halltech filter that I need to clean. Can I use the recharge kit from a KN filter to clean and re oil the Halltech? I don't have the Halltech recharge kit but I am guessing they all use pretty much the same kits to clean and re oil the filters.
Thanks

It's probably ok, but why not ask HALLTECH just in case the media requires something different?
I think the HALLTECH is oil on cotton gauze, but some filters (ie, SLP/ DONALDSON "BLACKWING") are synthetic filter media.

I have a Halltech Tric (old bottom breather) that has a wedge filter. I spoke with Jim at some point about cleaning it and he indicated to just wash it with mild soap and water using water pressure from the inside of the filter out.
He further indicated to lightly spray the cleaned AND DRIED filter with WD40.
Hope this helps!

I will shot an email off to Halltech and see what they say.
