Hopefully someone can summarize that field for you, Kamaljit, but I can't. Sorry. I have several books on my shelf here devoted solely to paint testing, and several more devoted solely to paint formulation, and one just on thinners. Your questions cover a huge amount of ground.
I think you need to have a paint supplier or paint consultant spend a few hours with you to get you started. Good luck!
