Cleaning before replacing is always a good idea...
You are better to remove the maf sensor from the air pipe itself - two torx (may be 5 point on some cars) so you can remove the actual maf sensor and get right into it.
You will be left with the maf in your hand - which looks like the maf on the front of the first maf cleaner can picture.
As has been said many times before.... dont go in ther too hard as the maf wire is very delicate.
