I might be getting some paint from Bob's Paints.

What prep needs to be done to use Bob's Paints since they are PPG lacquer?

What thinner(s) can be used to thin the paint?

Since I'm a "rattle can man," I don't use Bob's paints, however I know him well and he's a great guy to talk to. Either call him or e-mail him and I'm sure he can & will answer all your questions. BTW his Kustom Khrome is really nice if  you need any parts re-plated. And NO I don't get a commission either.

Bob usually recommends medium temp lacquer thinner. It will need to be thinned 100% or more. You will need to experiment some with a spare body or spoons. Of course automotive primer will need to be laid down first.
