DO NOT use ANY liquids. It can soften the stone and it can come
apart... those chunks don't slow down much when they hit a shirt.

Get a dressing stone or wheel and create a new surface. Any place selling
the new grinding wheels should have a dressing stone or wheel.

Or resins from the wood, if it was a resinous variety.

Roy Underhill tells a story about a grinding wheel that was full of
tar
when he got it. Soaking it in gasoline allowed him to clear the tar
off so he could use it.
Then when he was grinding steel with it and making sparks,
he discovered that not all of the gasoline had evaporated!
So I suggest you take Leon's advice and don't try cleaning it
with soap and water.

That is great for pink, white, green and blue wheels, and all the
other friable surface wheels. However, one of those gawdawful
remanufactured hunks of grey cinder block needs the wheel dresser
mentioned above.
You will grind that little "T" dresser with its 100 grit face right
off with one of those gray wheels.
