White spots on new plaster

Options
Just had lots of plastering done. In one room these white spots have appeared in the ceiling. Don’t feel different when I touch them - not salty or powdery or anything. n one

    Has a mist coat been applied ?
    The spots look very much like splatter, so shouldn't be anything to worry about - You could try wiping over the area with a damp sponge if you are concerned.

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.

    Does look like splatter, not necessarily from a mist coat but it could simply a bit of splashback from when the plasterer was cleaning his trowel or applying water to a wall during the final skim/polishing phase.
