CS2 Skin Inspector
Verify any CS2 skin before you buy. Get exact float values, paint seeds, sticker details, and 3D screenshots instantly. Paste an inspect link below to reveal the hidden details that determine a skin's true value.
What is a Skin Inspector?
Our CS2 Skin Inspector reveals the hidden details of any Counter-Strike 2 skin before you buy it. Every skin has unique properties that aren't visible in standard marketplace listings.
Simply paste an inspect link from Steam Market, BUFF163, CS.MONEY, or any other marketplace, and we'll show you the skin's exact float value, paint seed, sticker positions, and a 3D preview.
Why it matters: Two "Factory New" skins can look completely different. A 0.001 float is pristine while a 0.069 float shows visible wear - but both are labeled "FN".
How to Use
- Find the Inspect Link: On Steam Market, right-click "Inspect in Game" and copy the link. On third-party sites, look for an inspect button.
- Paste the Link: Paste into the input field above. Links start with
steam://rungame/730/ - View Results: We fetch data directly from Steam's servers and display float value, pattern info, and stickers.
- Get 3D Screenshot: Click the screenshot button for a high-quality 3D render.
What is Float Value?
Float value (wear value) is a number between 0 and 1 that determines how worn a skin looks. Lower float = less wear = cleaner appearance.
| Condition | Float Range |
|---|---|
| Factory New (FN) | 0.00 - 0.07 |
| Minimal Wear (MW) | 0.07 - 0.15 |
| Field-Tested (FT) | 0.15 - 0.38 |
| Well-Worn (WW) | 0.38 - 0.45 |
| Battle-Scarred (BS) | 0.45 - 1.00 |
Why it matters: A 0.070 FN looks almost identical to a 0.071 MW, but one is worth significantly more.
What is Paint Seed?
Paint seed (pattern index) is a number from 0 to 1000 that determines exactly how the skin's texture is positioned on the weapon.
Why it matters for certain skins:
- Case Hardened: Determines blue gem patterns - some seeds worth 10x+ more
- Fade: Affects fade percentage and color distribution
- Marble Fade: Controls Fire & Ice, Blue Dom patterns
- Slaughter: Determines diamond, heart, angel patterns
For most skins paint seed has minimal impact, but for pattern-based skins it can mean the difference between common and collector's item.
Sticker Information
Our inspector shows exactly which stickers are applied and their condition:
- Sticker Name: The exact sticker applied
- Position: Which slot (1-4) the sticker is in
- Wear: How scratched the sticker is (0% = perfect)
This is crucial because sticker combinations can significantly increase value, especially with rare Katowice 2014, Titan Holos, or iBUYPOWER stickers.
Why Inspect Before Buying?
Always inspect skins before purchasing to avoid overpaying or getting scammed:
- Verify Float: Ensure you're getting the exact wear advertised
- Check Pattern: Confirm valuable patterns like blue gems
- Confirm Stickers: Make sure rare stickers are actually applied
- See Actual Appearance: Screenshots can be misleading
- Compare Prices: Use float data to ensure fair pricing
