Souvenir Tec-9 | Whiteout (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Whiteout is a solid-colour Tec-9 with no pattern. The look comes from one pale tone and the dark metal that shows wherever the paint thins. In Minimal Wear the receiver, grip and magazine still read as clean white, and the small marks near the muzzle and on the shroud are hard to spot in a match.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The entire Tec-9 is spray-painted in a single cream-white tone with no pattern or accents. The perforated barrel shroud and the muzzle carry the same paint, but their ribs and hole edges are where dark metal shows through first.

Small dark marks appear on the shroud, the muzzle and a few receiver edges. The grip, the trigger area and most of the magazine stay clean. At normal distance in game the difference from Factory New is barely visible. Up close the shroud is the only area that shows use.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

The plain white frame works as a blank canvas: black, grey or holo stickers stand out clearly on the receiver side. For a calmer look, pick white or pale stickers that blend into the coat, or a single bright accent near the grip.

What to check before buying

• On a solid-colour finish the float decides everything, so compare the inspect view of the shroud and receiver edges between offers.
• Even Factory New copies may show slight darkening on the barrel shroud, so do not expect a perfectly untouched coat.
• Check stickers and a name tag, since on a plain white pistol they draw the eye immediately.
• Souvenir versions exist, so check whether the copy carries its fixed stickers.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Buyers who want a nearly clean white pistol without paying for the top grade.
• Players who will not notice the small shroud marks in a match.
• In short, nearly the same look for less.
