How to clean AEM Dryflow Filter?

Hey guys I custom made my own CAI for my 4 banger a while ago and you can see it in the pic below. My question is, how often does the filter on a CAI like this need to be cleaned? I think I have about 6,000 miles on it right now and have never cleaned it. Also, this filter is an AEM Dryflow and you can't oil it. AEM makes a kit of solution to clean the dryflow filter, but I dont think its necessary to clean the little filter on my getto intake. It seems you put the solution in a bucket of water and dip the filter in the bucket and shake it around. Then I'm sure you have to let it dry out a while. Im just wondering if there is some other solution anyone else has used.

I would personally just get the solution, it can't be that expensive. It's better than running the risk of damaging the filter and having to buy another one with some other mix. I know with the K&N the filtercharger kit with the cleaner and oil is about $12 and you do it once a year.
