Dry TEK 98.2% Calcium Hydroxide?

For the Gordo Dry Tek, would 98.2% pure Calcium Hydroxide suffice or does it have to be 100%?

The form I'm looking at is Kalkwasser at a local aquarium supply store.
 
You'll never get 100% lime in normal commerce. If it's safe for fish, it's safe for extractions ;)
Thank you for the reply.

Different question but hoping you may be able to help rather than setting up another forum discussion; do you know if solvent naphtha (petroleum), light aliph is okay for naphtha?

I did the evaporation test and can't seem to find any residue, unfortunately it's the only source of nampha I can find in my area via lighter fluid.

Lack of residue is the desired outcome - otherwise that residue would be ending up in your final product, and you don't want that.
