As I understand your vest is already black and you're trying to get it grey? My vest is actually grey leather to start with but antiqued with black oil antiqueing rub that I got at Tandy. If anything you may find some white oil color to mix with the black to make it grey (Again, tandy should have this). layer it on until it creates a slight white wash to steel grey. The black leather will show trough enough to keep the overall appearance dark. The spray that Tandy sells to set up the leather is actually just clearcoat... the same crap as krylon (a little secret a leather worker shared with me) This is probably why spray paint would work. Hope this doesn't confuse you more.
