Greetings,

Having just received an oil bath air cleaner from ChevyAsylum (thanks again smile smile smile ) I want to restore the filter assembly.

I want to media blast and paint the housing but don't want the media to get trapped in the fiberous material. Can I take the stuffing out of the filter and then stuff it back in after media blasting and painting? Or will it tear it up too bad and render it useless? Can you purchase that mesh stuff new somewhere?

Thanks, in advance!!
