Sand and cement pva?

[alfred eibenstock]

hi guys, I have a room that has damp all the way up to the top nearly, it will all be hacked off and sand and cement put back on.
When would be the best time to plaster this? Same day next day or left to set?And would I need to apply pva if Left till the next day?

What's caused the damp?

Make sure you get to the bottom of the damp before you apply any plaster mate. Loads of threads here to give you an idea of what to look for.
