There is no "best.". Kalkwasser, aka limewater, aka pickling lime are all the same, and are calcium hydroxide. Calcium Hydroxide is Calcium Hydroxide. I've used both Kent and Mrs. Wages and prefer Mrs. Wages because its less expensive and I can buy locally at the grocery store/Wal-Mart.

I also have been using Mrs, Wages from the start. Works perfectly and you can get it in wall mart cheap.
