How can you tell if it is bone dry?

I would leave it in the airing cupboard or somewhere dry for a day or two then oil it.

Just done that
It is amazing
4 min with the hair dryer and it is bone dry.
I nearly burned my hand holding it.
I am now going to leave it for an hour before i respray with oil.
I should have cleaned it a looong time ago. Did 23K miles since i installed it.

Out of curiosity, what oil do you spray it with? I will need to do the one on my tintop soon.
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I had bought a kit from ebay ages ago Oil + cleaner
The brand is APC
it was about 12 quid.
Cleaned 2 filters so far there is plenty left for the next 300K miles
Being Greek, I should have said Olive Oil.
