yeah ive taken the vaccum cleaner attachment and opened the filter housing up and went over the foam a few times.... so yeah in that sense its cleanable.. what i meant by cleanable was really reusable in the sense that like with a K&N you can actually clean it and reoil it to use the same filter like new... the HKS turn to a pale green after a while and start to get little debris in it that you cant really clean.. also the foam seems to get more porous and brittle feeling that seems non reverseable....
