The way I usually tell if my car needs claying is by dragging my knuckles across the surface of the paint lightly. If I feel any grit that means there is dirt in the paint and/or wax, and clay is one way to get it out.
Swirl remover or fine cut cleaner will do it too, but the clay seems to be less work.

Sonus makes a new fine clay (green) that's good for claying addicts like me.
It won't strip the sealant so that you can clay regularly. So now I never wax unless I've clayed, and I also clay after washing and before using the Acrylic spritz. Up here in New Jersey there are tonnes of contaminants that slip past the "feel" test. Living next to an airport requires more work.
