I've used Type-S hydrated lime for plastering. It's the same stuff you mix with Portland cement to make stucco or mortar (sometimes called 'mortar lime'). NOT agricultural lime. I myself have had a hard time finding anyone who really knows much about the use of lime. The supply stores usually only have salesmen that have never gotten their hands dirty with the stuff.
