Hi and welcome to AF
1: Clearcoating is when you put a clear coating overtop of your finish, to seal in decals, or to make the paint finish appear deeper. Some people use it and some don't, all a matter of preference. Sometimes it is easier to polish out the clear than the color coat.
2: Depends on your preference, whatever works for you is the best brush. There are so many types and sizes that I cannot recommend just one.
3: Depends on the decals you are using. I try to use the MicroScale sytem (microsol and microset) I also use Solvaset if the decal is really stubborn, but always test on a scrap piece first to be sure.
4: Browse the "How-to" and FAQ sections for all your modeling needs.
