Deep-cleaning the IQ is a nightmare. Millions of q-tips, rubbing and bent pipe cleaners dipped in iso. Also, the teardown is great, I love how the PuffItUp does this sort of things!
Looks way too deep, this deep cleaning. I have my IQ for about a year now and I never deep cleaned.
Only thing I do is that I remove what can be removed (flavour chamber and the ball) and I q-tip everything else (chamber itself and the hole for flavour chamber), if I feel like it I use Bud's picktool to scrape the "devil's anus" (IQ owners know what I'm talking about) and that's it, my IQ is clean.
I can see how the vapcap is superiour for sure. But for me its more of a desktop vape. I wouldnt be caught using that thing anywhere but the privacy of my own home. If i was ever able to afford to have a butane vape i think i would go with somekind of sticky brick. The hydro def appeals to me. It would be a home vape as well though.
