Default Any spray painters on here ,advice needed

Im painting some moonstone blue paint colour looks spot on in the tin but when painted it doesn't seem to have that tint that you normally get with it? Iv painted on top of grey primer is this the right base to spray on to? I no some paints you have to use white or even heard of black or could it be the paint doesn't have enough toner/tint? It's 2k base an Lacquer I'm using.

Thanks in advance
Chris
