Nitty Gritty Fi

Manual brushes often push dirt deeper into the grooves, whereas the Nitty Gritty Fi uses a vacuum system to physically lift and remove debris. By combining automatic fluid application with high-velocity suction, it extracts contaminants rather than just spreading them around.

No, the industrial velvet lips are specifically designed to be gentle on vinyl. They act as a soft interface that scrubs the grooves while protecting the surface from direct contact with the vacuum slot, ensuring a deep clean without abrasion.

Yes, the machine features an automatic fluid application and rotation system. This ensures that the cleaning solution is distributed evenly across the record surface, minimizing the risk of over-saturation or missed spots.

The unit includes a slide-out waste tray that collects the used fluid. You simply slide the tray out to empty it, making the cleanup process straightforward and mess-free.

Maintenance is minimal but essential for performance. You will need to periodically clean or replace the velvet lips if they become worn or heavily soiled, and keep the waste tray clear to ensure the vacuum system operates at full efficiency.
