Spots/dots on new plastered ceiling and walls

[Nego26]

Hi,

This is my first post.Any advice/comments/suggestions would be very helpful.

We've had the artex plastered over last Saturday and all of it seems to be dried but we are getting spots/dots around the ceiling and wall, pictures attached. We have not started on the base coat as we are not sure what these dots are. Does anyone know what could be causing this or if it needs to be treated?

Thank you
Andrea

Have you tried to paint over the new plaster to see if the marks will cover?

Possibly nicotine stains.

Stain block. Paint

You can get that in old kitchens as well due to oily deposits from cooking and nicotine as has already been mentioned.
