Default Breather Bypass Catch Can Foam
does anyone know what type of foam is used in some catch cans? I had the bypass installed over the summer and found the foam had fallen apart and basically disintegrated

I just use a piece of paper towel rolled up around the edges. Just need something to soak up the liquid so it doesn't get blown out the vent holes.

Works for me..

Did this to mine. Works fine. Infinitely re-useable.
