The Rat With The Bloodshot Eyes
All snarl, drool and attitude, drawn the way kustom kulture always liked it: ugly on purpose and proud of it. He is the anti-mascot, and that is precisely why people have kept him around for sixty years. For the toolbox lid, the helmet, or the fridge in the garage.
Rat Fink turned up in the late fifties as a deliberate insult to a certain cheerful cartoon mouse: bug eyes, a grin with too many teeth, and absolutely no interest in behaving. Hot rod culture took one look and refused to let him go.
Size: please read this bit!
3 inches across (7.6 cm), measured across the widest point of the die cut. Measure the spot you have in mind, because size is the one thing buyers tell us they wish they had checked twice.
- Glossy finish, sealed under a laminate that shrugs off wind, rain and sunlight
- Happy on metal, glass, plastic, wood, paint and paper
- Dishwasher-proof. Genuinely. It comes out looking brand new
- Printed, cut and hand-packed by us here in Seattle, WA
These end up on toolboxes and tool chests, on truck windows and tailgates, on helmets and hard hats, on guitar cases and amps, on skateboards, bikes and mini fridges, and on the back of more than one laptop that has no business being that cool.
This is the same outdoor vinyl we have been printing for years. Customers write in to tell us their stickers still looked new after five years on a car, through rain, sun and several winters, and one has had the same stealie on every car he has owned for thirty years. Weather is genuinely no problem. The one thing that will beat it is a stiff-brush automatic car wash, which is true of every vinyl sticker ever made, and we would rather tell you than let you find out.
FREE shipping from Seattle
Single stickers ride in a plain envelope by USPS First Class Letter, which is exactly what keeps the price where it is. That means no tracking number on the free option, and it lands looking like ordinary personal mail (one customer called it "mysterious till opened"). Please allow 7 to 10 days. Want tracking? Just pick the paid shipping method at checkout. USPS occasionally works in quite mysterious ways, so thank you for your patience, and please do message us if something seems lost. We will always sort it out.
