How do i clean the print and allow the print to stay clear? when cleaning it with ipa it turns foggy. is there a better method?

Clean your print with 95% or above IPA in the first bath (you can use a soft bristled toothbrush to make sure you get the uncured resin out of the small details if necessary. Allowing IPA to stay too long on uncured resin causes cloudiness and “white-ish streaks”. After agitating your piece in the first bath, give it a quick dunk in a second bath of clean IPA (I prefer to use a misting spray bottle instead). Pat dry and or wash it in a third bath of clean, distilled water. Let it dry (or carefully blow dry with some canned air). Remove your supports and then set out in the sun or use a “curing oven” or UV nail dryer to cure. You should not have any streaks from uncured resin at this point. With transparent or translucent prints, follow up with a layer or two of UV resistant clear coat to regain your transparency or translucency. :)

Abs-like resin - how to compensate for volume shrinkage/linear shrinkage in laymen's terms? i need accurate scale.

Shrinkage varies with shape and volume. Print a test model, cure it, then measure. Scale the model proportionally by the amount of shrinkage. If a part is designed at 20mm but prints at 18mm, then scale by 20/18*100. You can set the scales independently for the X, Y, and Z directions, then when you print the final model, or any subsequent copies, they will be printed precisely.

Is the cured resin reasonably flexible for printing miniatures? the current Anycubic resin I am using (came with printer) is too brittle. Thanks!

I've used many bottles of this resin in grey for minis and have printed maybe 100 so far with great results but it is still brittle, so to speak. You can still knock them around a bit on the tabletop but a drop from table to floor can break off swords, arms and such. I believe this condition is native to resin printing. My resin printer is an Anycubic Photon by the way.

Can i pour this into a silicone mold and make jewelry with it? I dont have a 3d printer and want the transparent uv resin for jewelry.

Maybe if it was a very shallow mold and you had a nice, strong uv lamp. The uv doesn't pass through much resin without direct contact. I would just stick with epoxy resin in a mold.
