Rat isn't a paint color, it's an overall style. I think you can run any paint color and have the end effect speak 'rat' to anyone who looks at it if the bike itself fits. I think this thread proves that, too. It can be any color you'd like, if the bike is ratty before paint, it'll be ratty after paint too.
I'm a sucker for OG paint, old repaints and patina. One of my favorites is a 2 tone paint job where the base color has faded and rusted, but the secondary color, lettering or pin-striping remains intact. I also like wet sanding a bad paint job and then spraying it with clear. Its shiny and still has character. I think any color looks good with the right accents.
Heres my latest build. 63 Fleet
i agree anything can be ratty, and i like rusty, rustic or patina BUT 70 Percent of the bikes on here are black, primer, or red, I like all the bikes posted on here with color, that Schwinn with the blue lights on the front, that looks like the robot's head from short circuit.
this is my Road Master in purple
and my Columbia in red and silver
