A trick to remove the oil filter without getting dirty.

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Oil filter

In this video we can see a trick to remove the oil filter without getting our hands dirty. First of all, our car must have the filter in a position that can be removed from below (which is the position of most cars) and then we must find a container large enough to contain it and that can still allow us to turn the filter thread. This way the filter will remain inside the container (ideally it should be transparent, like the one seen in the video) so when the oil inside it starts to flow out, we will see it and it will remain inside the container.
