If you're like me and prefer salvaging skins and cosmetics that you don't use in PUBG, you may have gathered excessive amounts of Polymers. At first glance, you might not be able to pinpoint their purpose, but using Polymers in PUBG is essential to upgrade progressive weapon skins.

Progressive weapon skins in PUBG come in various styles, but accessing these variants requires players to get their hands dirty during the upgrading processes. Though the upgrade process is relatively straightforward in PUBG, acquiring them is the real challenge since polymers aren't easy to come by.

How do you use Polymers in PUBG

You can use Polymers in PUBG while inspecting your progressive weapon skins. If you have enough Polymers in your inventory, you can upgrade skins for your guns in PUBG.

If you don't have enough Polymers, you'll have to gather more before upgrading. Once you collect enough Polymers you can go back to your inventory to upgrade your progressive weapon cosmetics.

How to level up progressive skins in PUBG

To level up progressive skins in PUBG, you need to have enough Polymers in your inventory. Polymers can be acquiredthrough various in-game methods and players are likely to accumulate a decent chunk of them as they continue playing the game.

I, for one, wasted my fair share of Polymers on progressive skins I ended up not using so much during my rookie days. However, this allowed me to make more educated decisions later on while upgrading my progressive skins with Polymers in PUBG.

How to get Polymers in PUBG

You need to salvage weapon skins to get Polymers in PUBG. This is the most reliable way to get Polymers in the game. Some weapon skins give more Polymers than others, like the Gold AK and Groza skins.

If you're looking to maximize the amount of Polymers you get out of each salvage, you can use the Steam Community Market to purchase cosmetics with higher Polymer returns.

What do Polymers do in PUBG?

Polymers are used to craft/upgrade weapon skins in PUBG. More specifically, players use Polymers to upgrade their progressive weapon skins. The best way to get Polymers is by salvaging excess weapon skins sitting in your inventory.

The process becomes expensive once players acquire skins from the Steam Market to get more Polymers. We recommend researching how much Polymers you can get from specific skins, so you can calculate the approximate cost of getting more Polymers for your next skin upgrade. Whenever I upgrade a progressive skin, I also have a habit of switching to FPP from TPP in PUBG so I can appreciate the latest unlock of my collection.
