With this I didn't even use a plastic primer coat, although today I would spray with plastic primer first and then normal primer (red, white or grey) and then the final colour, using (nowadays) acrylic rather than cellulose car sprays.

As for a shade of grey, what shade are you looking for? Here's a link to a RAL colour chart for greys:
