I'd probably start with a vegetable cooking oil (but olive oil will have an odor you may not like --not that petroleum jelly is wonderfully fragrant by itself!).
Other oily substances that would act as thinners might be:
mineral oil (the laxative type is thicker than regular mineral oil and "baby oil" btw)
glycerin
artists' oil paints?
If you used a thin solvent like turpentine, etc., though, you probably wouldn't want to use the resulting petroleum jelly on your skin if that's how you wanted to use it.
HTH,

Not with water. It's an oil-based substance.
Try a little mineral oil, that might work.
Or heating it a little so it melts.

obviously, not water or anything water based. if anything will work without just making a mess, it would be mineral oil. good luck
