XM1014 | Teclu Burner (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The finish pairs a long metallic orange barrel with a flame motif on the receiver, a look that echoes the Bunsen burner theme of its name. Minimal Wear keeps nearly all of that warmth intact. Any marks are small and hard to spot outside the inspect view.

Item type: shotgun. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The barrel and the magazine tube under it are painted in metallic amber and gold, and the barrel darkens to scorched brown and near-black towards the muzzle, like metal heated in a flame. The receiver carries a reddish-brown base with a dark flame motif outlined in green.

Tiny scuffs may appear on the muzzle and the front edge of the magazine tube. The receiver flames and the gradient along the barrel look the same as on Factory New. At normal distance in game the difference is practically invisible. The rest of the weapon stays clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of XM1014 | Teclu Burner is 0–0.65; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (12% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, orange and red stickers continue the heat theme of the barrel and receiver. Dark or green accents placed near the receiver echo the flame outlines without breaking the palette. Cool blue or bright pink stickers tend to clash with the warm metallic tones.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since copies close to a cleaner grade keep noticeably more of the metallic coat.
• Inspect the muzzle, the barrel edges and the receiver corners, because these areas lose paint first.
• Look at the flame motif on the receiver to see how clearly its green outline survives.
• Note any applied stickers or a name tag, and whether the copy is StatTrak™ or Souvenir.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a look almost identical to Factory New in game.
• Buyers who prefer to save a little while keeping the colours fresh.
• A sensible middle ground between appearance and cost.
