This is the stuff I use (ignore the Mini Cooper nonsense, it's for any foam filter): http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...r_cleaning_kit



The cleaner stinks to high hell though. One kit is plenty for 4 or 5 cleanings/oilings as long as you don't let the filter get so dirty you run out of cleaner early.
Most people overuse the cleaner including me in the past. A light coat of cleaner, wait, hose out let dry and go back if necessary on dirty spots.

Warm water (not hot) in a sink is even better.
