Is there any alternative oil, than K&N oil for their air filters?

PJ1 has a product for fabric filters, but I think it is more expensive than K&N's. I've read of using mixtures of mineral oil and rubbing alcohol(to dilute the oil so it can be atomized) and even tanny fluid. The latter is already red so you can see the coverage. I haven't used the last two, but I didn't see any difference between the PB1 and K&N.

Just don't use spray oil made for foam filters, it's too sticky. I usually use regular 10-40 for those anyway.

Have ordered some K&N, will have it tomorrow. Some things just not worth the messing with lol.

I've been spraying my K&N filter with ATF/kero mix for years. Seems to work well enough.
