Fade airbrushes transparent paints in a smooth gradient over a chrome base, letting the metal shine through the AWP's long body. Because every Fade is dipped to a different degree, the amount of color reaching the rifle varies from unit to unit. Full-fade examples that carry the bright tones across the whole gun are the most sought after.
