Rust skin breakdown: turn skins into Cloth, Wood and Metal

See skins selling for less than their breakdown value →

Almost every Rust skin can be broken down into one Cloth, Wood or Metal on Steam. Doing it one skin at a time in the game is slow; here you pick as many as you like, accept one trade offer from our bot, and get the resources sent back to you, in one stack per resource or as single items, whichever you prefer. Free. Breaking a skin down is permanent, so only pick skins you're happy to lose.

Rust skin breakdown turns Rust skins into the Cloth, Wood and Metal they break down into on Steam, in bulk and for free. Every breakable skin gives exactly one resource: weapon skins give Metal, clothing and armour skins give Cloth, and everything else (deployables, tools, building skins) gives Wood. Pick the skins on this page, accept one trade offer from the rust.wiki bot, and the resources come back to your Steam inventory as one stack per resource or as single items.

Frequently Asked Questions

One Cloth, Wood or Metal each - the resource is shown on every skin's Steam description ('Breaks down into 1 x Metal') and next to each skin on this page.

No. Steam consumes the skin and creates the resource; there is no way to get the skin back. Only pick skins you are happy to lose.

No. The service is free and every resource produced is sent back to you.

So you only ever trade the exact skins you picked here. The offer asks for those skins and gives nothing; once you accept, the bot breaks them down and sends a second offer with your resources.

One stack per resource keeps your inventory tidy (for example 40 Metal as one item). Single items gives you each resource separately, which some people prefer for trading in small amounts.
