What I've read is that most of the dirt-capturing ability of a foam filter is actually in the oil you're supposed to soak it with, but I guess a piece of fleece is better than nothing.
And speaking of that oil, WEAR GLOVES when you apply it and squeeze out all the excess.
That oil is nasty, tenacious stuff.
