Have been using this yellow lanky ceramic sharpener, and have trouble removing the build up of fines... any specific techniques for cleaning & maintai

use oil(wd40) to remove build up from ceramic stones and water to remove build up on diamond stones

Can this be used without the lansky system? And exactly how sharp does this get it?

It is pretty small (narrow) and is designed to be used with their guide rods and blade holder. I suppose you could use it as a flat stone, although you may be better off seeking a stone designed for such use.As far as "how sharp does it get it?", that all depends on your skill and persistence. This ultra-fine stone is used for final polish of an existing sharpened blade, and it does well at that. The next finer stone in the Lansky system is the Sapphire stone. That really puts a mirror polish on the blade.

Is there a hone that has a higher grit than the ultra fine or can I go straight from it to the stropping hone?

I really don't know if Lansky sells a higher grit stone than the 1000 grit you are asking about. I go from the 1000 grit ultra fine straight to the strop and am very pleased. Perfect probably not but for the poor guy I get a nice mirror edge and sharp edge that is quite nice for the price.

Does anybody know the grit on this stone?

I know it says 1000 but this is actually a finishing hone, it won't necesarilly make your knife any sharper. It will put a mirror polish on your blade (if you know what ur doing). I love it, this is probably the cheapest high quality finishing hone I've ever used. Try it, you won't be sorry.
