Graffiti
Graffiti (formerly known as Sprays) are cosmetic items in Counter-Strike 2 that allow players to spray artwork on in-game surfaces. Graffiti has been a feature of Counter-Strike since the original game.
Overview
Players can spray graffiti on any valid surface during a match by pressing the assigned key (default: T). Each use consumes one charge, with most graffiti items having 50 charges. Once all charges are used, the item is consumed.

Sealed Graffiti
- Unsealed version that has not been applied to the in-game inventory
- Can be traded and marketed on Steam
- Must be "unsealed" before use (consumed in the process)
How to Use
