What is the best way to remove filter material after cutting open

[Al Downs]

I have my filter cut open. How do I remove the paper filter material to check?

Thank you

What about not removing the paper element and submerging/shaking the entire filter element in a larger container of fuel and then pouring through a paper towel? Is the outside or inside of the filter the "catching" side?

I have always used the box cutter method. Just watch out for your fingers. Don't ask how I know this. :wacko:
