Aside from the paste do I need anything else? Some people I need to clean the cpu with something first

You need 99% Isopropyl Alcohol to clean the existing thermal paste before applying a new 1, you can get it from any pharmacy. I strongly suggest not to use grizzly kryonaut, that thing is liquid metal, if you are inexperience in applying thermal paste, the chances of short-circuiting the board is very high, In the future if you are looking to clean your PS4 again it's going to be a big hassle not to mention the advantage it offer is not that significant. Strongly recommend to use Arctic MX-4 thermal paste. Excellent conductivity and easy the apply.

Kryonaut is non conductive paste. Conductonaut is liquid metal.

Check your facts next time.
MX-4 is ok, but Kryonaut is still better. MX-4 also dries up quicker than Kryonaut.

Also, you may want to get some thermal pads to replace the ones for the RAM and VRM.

my bad, then perhaps TS can go for kryonaut too, just stay away from liquid metal
