I'll answer your questions in order... from my perspective:

1. When I want to paint clear parts green, red, yellow etc... eg: lights

2. I tend to mask off any clear parts that I want to paint and then do the wash/weathering. After I unmask the clear parts, I then paint them with clear paint.

3. Tamiya clear paints are glossy. I don't know about any others.
