Here is what I am currently working with in terms of options:

    Do you want pure grey or an RGB grey?? Setting all the RGB colors to the same number will equal a grey.

For a grey value in RGB, you need to set all 3 colors the same. So R195 G195 B195 is a grey. Higher numbers mean a lighter grey, lower numbers are darker.

In addition, you can also simply use the tint slider on the Color Panel after clicking the "Black" swatch. This will yield greys as well. You can also drag those tints from the Color Panel to the Swatch Panel to reuse them.
