It's fairly opaque, but I would put it over white or silver as gray primer may mute it.

If u have checked out my C-West SkylineR34 Thread, i sprayed it with Gray primer, and it works pretty good, sprayed alot of coats and sprayed TS21 GOLD over.

I used TS-21 over Mr. Surfacer 1000 which is a light grey primer. I think it, like silver, is pretty opaque and very usable over white or grey, but for safety you should use white.

I think white might be the way to go as the car is a bright gold and the white should give it a closer look then grey IMO

I would go over black myself
Just my opinion - i think it brings out the gold but gold has black in so it will go over most colours fine
