I use Tamiya's Fine Surface Primer.  It is more expensive than some other products, but I find it covers well, so that a little goes farther.  I use it on styrene, resin, and white metal.

I used to use Rustoleum, but they changed the nozzle design, and the last couple of cans I got clogged inside the aperture at the top of the can.  Same goes for Walmart's house brand of automotive primer.  They were also a little more coarsely grained than Tamiya's and other primers made for scale modeling.  So for a case such as yours, painting a car model, those primers benefitted from a little smoothing with fine sandpaper, or as I've done, coffee filter paper.  Just to knock the roughness back a little.
