Can you use a grey primer then paint white?

Besides a few shades of black, white primer will reflect more light back than a gray primer under a paint color that doesn't cover well. Gray is often used under dark reds which would normally require several coats of paint to cover, The lighi that would normally be reflected from a white primer underneath the paint is, instead, absorbed by the gray primer, giving the illusion of an opaque surface. White primer is used under any light paint that covers well. It can also be tinted to the color of many off white or pastel wall colors to help ensure coverage using fewer coats.

Off white is created by adding just enough of another color to tone the white down slightly. Adding a small amount of Payne's gray will tone the white down slightly. Using a small amount of burnt umber or burnt sienna will make it slight toned down toward a brown color or beige. A drop of yellow makes a good highlight color by toning down the white in a sunny situation. You can make any off white you want and have it go in the direction you want it to be.

What horse breeds come in Splashed white?

normally it is called a "paint" The word "paint" can be a little confusing as I believe any horse that has white above the knee can be called a "paint" however it would not necessarily be a "splashed paint". For example a purebred clydesdale has white above the knee and they are called a clydesdale not a paint. Also you can breed two paints and the offspring may not have any white at all. So its confusing...
