How is that controlled? What stops Billy Bob from using quilted Charmin because that's what his wife bought last time at the grocery store, and he's changing the oil today?
That's my whole problem with these filters. I don't care how you slice it, toilet paper is not an engineered filtering media and the technical specifications that Kimberly Clark uses to design their toilet paper are not the same ones that Honeywell, Bosch and Hengst use to design an oil filter. Like I mentioned in another thread on these filters, I'd have an easier time if they used coffee filters instead of toilet paper. At least there you are using something that is designed as a filtering media. I still wouldn't use it over an actual oil filter, but at least you are using something that has "filter" in the name.
