A comparison of detailing bags (Rupes, Autopia, Blackfire) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey guys, if you don't have a detailing bag, seriously think about getting one. These things are awesome and make great all purpose bags as well.

My brother actually stole my blackfire bag on his recent trip to Ecuador lol so you know it is durable stuff and can be used for other things as well, not just detailing.

Anyways, here's a video with all three bags and my thoughts on them:

I wish I had more bags in my arsenal, like the Adam's one, but I'm not allocating money for more bags unless I actually NEED another one now lol.

P.S. Forgot to mention the prices:

Rupes = $90-100
Autopia bag = $50
Blackfire bag = $60

I have the one that comes with the UDM and it's ok. Holds everything I need but the only cars I do are my own. If I do need to go out, I can easily fit what I need in it.

How big is it? Hard to tell from the pictures.

I've got the red autogeek version of the Autopia one you showed. Love it, it lives in my trunk all the time.

With it full unzipped and opened up, it roughly measures 9in deep, 9in wide, and 16in long. There are pouches all the way around the outside and in. If you had many of your products in those small squeeze bottles, like the Rupes one in the vid, you could easily fit all of them in the pouches.

As you might've noticed from the video, I really love the pockets on the outside of that thing! Not many pockets can hold a bottle of m205 with ease
