"Warning: Grinding non-heat treated steel such as carbon steel, aluminum and other soft metals will cause irreparable damage to the CBN wheel."


The reason they say that is because with soft steel the wheel can load up.  However, many sources say just run the wheel with some hardened steel and it clears the wheel.  People even tested that with aluminum and brass and it worked.

As usual, good comments, Grepper. I think these wheels warrant serious study.
