But it separated at the bottom seam which allowed oil to leak out. Maybe the next one will be better. I did not leak any oil at the filter when it was removed from the engine. So the design is good.

Durability4 / 5Reliability4 / 5Performance4 / 5Ease Of Use4 / 5Value5 / 5Would You Recommend?YesOil Filter BibFirst time to use the Oil Filter Bib. Handy, easy to use and certainly helped prevent spillage when removing the filter.
On first one I used I held the bib too tightly around the filter mounting base and one side seam ripped. Was more careful on second filter and prevented seam rip.
My filters are remote mounted in a horizontal orientation. Consequently it is impossible to remove the filters with an opening face up to prevent spillage. Oil Bib contained the spillage as advertised, but smeared around the filter as I rotated it. Learning from the first experience, however, taught me to adjust my hold and turning technique enough to prevent as much smearing.
In both cases the Oil Bib did prevent almost all of the seepage from spilling into the engine compartment.
I would caution against having the filter "drop" into the bib as suggested. Seems to me that would present a good possibility of pulling the bib away from one's grip on the bib.
A great improvement though over the wrapping and packing with shop towels approach I've been using.
I don't hesitate at all to recommend the Oil Filter Bib.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)
