K&N filter cleaner is for oiled filters only. If you have a paper filter, don't try it. Your only option with paper for more than just dusting is replacement.

I cant remeber the company. I think its a oiled filter. Its like the filters that come with WAI's just skinner.

Yes then you should be fine using the K&N recharge kit. Although if this is a cheap e-bay filter you might be better off just buying a nice new K&N
