Good boil, fast cool down, fining's and time.

Cold condition for a long time, filter, or use finings. The gelatin you can buy in the regular grocery store works great: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f13/gelatin-finings-53912/

In my case, brew a Wit. I can't get those darn things cloudy. 
Seriously, all I do is Irish moss/whirflock (however that's spelled) in the boil, 3 week primary, then bottle condition and let the beer refrigerate for 5-7 days.
Secondaries and gelatin won't hurt, but I don't use them. Just give everything time to settle.

Do you screen off befoore going into primary?

Is up to you. I do because I wash my yeast and find it allot easier.

Whirlfloc is great unless you are trying to achieve a cloudy wheat beer That is the only time I don't use it.

Yeah, I don't use it in that one, obviously. But it regularly comes out my clearest beer. Oh, well, I'm not entering it in a contest, and it tastes great and looks nice, so there you go.

It is. My understanding is that it's basically Irish moss in tablet form.
