In the frequently asked questions section at the end of this guide, we also provide detailed answers to questions you may have about removing stickers in CS:GO. 

Stickers in CS:GO are graphical items that you can apply to your weapons or containers (such as the CSGO weapon cases). These items are basically graphical signatures that players can place on specific parts of their guns or on their containers to add a layer of customization to their equipment. 

Different designs of these stickers are available, and it can be team logos or the players’ autographs and graphics associated with CSGO or something that could be relevant to the events happening around. Stickers are useful in that they help you express your loyalty to your teams or players of choice on your gear.

They can be put on any region of your weapon: on the surface of the stock, the magazine, the body, and more based on the nature of the sticker and the skin of the weapon in question.

In case you don’t know how you can get your hands on these graphical gems, here are some ways you can obtain them in CS:GO:

• Sticker Capsules: Sticker capsules are containers that just drop at random in CS:GO and contain different stickers. You can open a container and obtain a random sticker from the capsule’s collection.

• Major Championships: During CS:GO Major Championships (such as ESL One Cologne, IEM Katowice, etc.), the CS:GO developers release special stickers featuring participating teams and players. You can collect and trade these stickers.

• Community Market: For some stickers in CS:GO, people can trade them on the Steam Community Market, where you could  acquire the stickers that you really want.

• Promotions and In-Game Events: Sometimes in CS:GO, the developers release special events or promotions and during such, you can either earn or buy stickers associated with that event.

Through these means, you will secure the stickers that you want, and you can place them in the related weapons and gears of your inventory.

Of course! You can remove stickers in CS:GO. Whether you get tired of the stickers on weapons and gears, or you have already formed a new team and want to have a new sticker showing your new team, you can always scrape off the unwanted sticker and paste the one that you want.

You can reduce the visibility of stickers through a process known as scraping, although they can be removed entirely.

If you follow the step-by-step processes in the next sections of this guide. You can easily scrape off or totally remove stickers from your items in CS:GO.
