Tec-9 | Remote Control (Factory New)

The Tec-9 | Remote Control (Factory New) is a Classified pistol skin covered in colorful hand-painted dials and switches over a blue base. Factory New captures that dense detail work at its sharpest, before any wear touches the surface.

Design

The finish is hand painted with an array of colorful dials and switches spread across a blue base, giving it a busy, gadget-like look rather than a single motif. It's a Valve-made finish, carrying the in-game line "Don't touch that dial."

Tec-9 | Remote Control (Factory New) Float and Wear

Remote Control spans the full 0.00–1.00 float range, and Factory New sits at the very bottom of it. At this grade the blue base looks deep and even, and every dial and switch on the body reads with full clarity and no scuffing.

Tec-9 | Remote Control Rarity

Rarity: Classified, the pink tier — one step below Covert and among the rarer standard weapon grades, making it a genuinely uncommon pull from a case.

Tec-9 | Remote Control Case and Collection

This finish comes from The 2018 Nuke Collection, which arrived in September 2018 with the FACEIT 2018 update. Classified-tier odds from the associated case sit at roughly three percent, and with that case no longer active, most copies these days are bought on the market instead of freshly unboxed.

Tec-9 | Remote Control Patterns

This is a fixed design — the layout of dials and switches never changes from copy to copy, so there's no paint seed or "blue gem" version to look for. Only wear grade and float separate one copy from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Remote Control exists as a regular finish and a Souvenir finish, but no StatTrak version was ever made. Souvenir copies first appeared in the London 2018 Nuke Souvenir Package, with several more Major souvenir packages following at different tournaments in the years since.

Tec-9 | Remote Control Price

Factory New tops the price ladder for this finish, priced above every other grade as the way to get the design in its cleanest possible state. It's a premium Tec-9 pick. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Why does Factory New cost more than Minimal Wear here?

Because the finish spans the full float range from 0.00 to 1.00, the visual gap between grades is bigger than on capped skins. Factory New shows every dial and switch crisply with zero wear, which commands a real premium over Minimal Wear.

Does the pattern change between copies of Remote Control?

No. The dials-and-switches layout is fixed and identical across every copy, so there's no seed number or rare pattern worth chasing here. Wear grade and exact float are the only things that vary.

Is there a StatTrak version of the Tec-9 | Remote Control?

No, StatTrak was never produced for this finish. It is available as both a regular finish and a Souvenir finish, the Souvenir copies coming from Major-tournament packages rather than from a case.
