I also wonder how cost effective they are compared to paper.

Cleaning oil filters is out of our hands. But they could be cleaned with something like brake parts cleaner or kerosene.

With a stainless steel filter, you buy only one filter and then clean it every time you would change the paper filter. $100 for one filter ever vs whatever a paper filter costs every time you change the filter. In the long run the stainless filters cost less and guarantee better filtration and better oil flow.

This is probably going on the bikes the next oil change I do.
