I tend to find it's pine that clogs it up prematurely. A wood that's hard and dry I find is really effective say an oak edge pushed on really hard. Often more effective than the rubber ones which can be to soft and not build up heat to pop the clogs off.
 
Silicon is a wonderful material and does a great job on water-proofing joints. It may well work on blocked abrasives, but as mentioned earlier, is it really a good idea. I would not like to throw it around my workshop where it could get onto timber to be glued or finished.
