Phone bill @ badger 5, order some solvent cleaner and polymer spray from him (i would order 2 cleaners, as one can didnt seem enough when i did mine) take the filter out, brush off the heavy contaminates like leaves bugs etc, then apply the cleaner....let it soak the filter and drain out the bottom. Tahen let stand and dry. I think some then wash it in really hot water to get it even cleaner. Make sure it is totally dry and apply a new coat of the polymer (like a sticky spray) i only used about half a can ish as you dont want to over do it. Then re-fit to the car 
Job done
This is how i did mine, and it was fine, couldnt believe how dirty mine was!!!!

Will be back here in a year myself to refresh on the cleaning, once i've got my filter fitted!

get it of raid m8 that's where i get mine from £8.99 for 1x 500ml cleaning fluid 1x 500ml of that polymer oil http://www.raidhp.co.uk/
Leave the filter to dry for a LONG time after using the solvent.
Don't use as much polymer spray as it suggests on the can.
