It currently grays after 2 downvotes. You start at 1, one downvote puts you at 0, then another puts you at -1, and that's when you're grayed.

I just checked one of my comments at 0 and that is not correct (there are different levels of graying depending on score, but the graying indeed starts at 0).

Just checked one of my comments and you're right. I wonder if that changed or if I've always been mistaken about that.
