I've sprayed Steck walls with no problems.  Here's my two storey red house which is simply a white house sprayed with cellulose car primer:

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:

I'm sure there's at least fifty shades of grey to choose from.

Actually there is only 14 shades of grey from which you can choose
