    Can someone measure a Rupes 21 for me?

    I am looking at purchasing a bag for my Rupes.

    I want the following bag but it is 17" long and I am not sure the Rupes will fit.

    Autogeek Detailer's Bag, detailing bag, detailing supplies bag, storage bag, tool box, buffer bag, car care organizer, buffing pads organizer

    But I might need this one depending on the length of the Rupes.

    Check out this review

    A comparison of detailing bags (Rupes, Autopia, Blackfire)

    The AG bag and Autopia bag are essentially the same

    Re: Can someone measure a Rupes 21 for me?

    Sorry, forgot to mention that I am not fond of spending $99.99 for a bag when really from what I can tell, I can get a bag just as good for $49-$59. That leaves me with $40 for more product, pads, accessories.

    Anyone have any experience with a non Rupes bag for the Rupes line? I have also read the 8oz bottle holders in the Rupes bag is undersized for all other 8oz bottles. Seems weird.

    No problem there, but the Rupes bag was made to store the polishers, etc from Rupes.. Plus it's a good marketing tool for clients/potential clients.

    You do make a good point about the marketing. I just know sometimes a competitors item might fit the needs a little better. Just looking for experience from someone who has more than the rupes bag and it looks like your post with the video seals the deal!

    Re: Can someone measure a Rupes 21 for me?

    The Rupes bag is VERY VERY WELL MADE.
    However u are correct in terms of the pockets and what not, it is specially made for the Rupes line up.

    The Rupes 15 / 21 is quite big, i am no sure if someone have already provided u the measurement, if not i can do it for it.

    But i know for a fact the Autogeek Detailers bag will not fit the machine.
    The only bag i know AG have that would fit, is the BF Professional detailer bag. Which does not have a rigid design, however it is HUGE and can fit a lot of stuff. I personally prefer something rigid to store my polisher, i am currently also looking for some sort of storage for my machines.
    It is hard to find a bag to fit the machine well and at the same time with compartments for your other stuff.

    Yesterday came a thought to buy one of those zip lock brand storage boxes from Wal Mart. And somehow make dividers to separate everything. However i don't know how i am going to make the dividers to make this work lol.

    According to AG, the Rupes bag is 19" long, and you can see from the photo on the product page the LHR15/21 fits perfectly inside it. You could maybe stuff the 21 sorta diagonally in the AG bag, but you'd likely loose some bag functionality by doing so.

    From the edge of the bp to end of the handle=17".......add 2" for the sheathing of the cord.
