TetraFlake vs. DowFlake

I sent my wife to the pool store to get another 25lb bag of Dowflake to make Randy's Two-Part.

She came home with Tetraflake. It lists the ingredients as CaCl2 (min 77%), NaCl, and KCl... so I'm not really worried about it being okay to use.

I just wanted to ask if anyone else has ever used this product?

Tetra is probably what most will be switching to since the dow has bromide issues. Tetra is manufactured differently.
