Hi, independent of the wall and ceilings. Normally, when Multifinish get a light pink colour, it is mostly dry. After I  give two more days for the mist coat paint. If plastering is done after the new rendering, it will take two weeks minimum  +.

Once all areas turn pink and dried fully. But if not fully dried you can paint with a contract matt paint. Leyland super leytex

Benjamin · Answer

yes if there are still damp patches you can not paint yet wait till the plaster has completely dried before painting depending on room temperature and air flow one week after plastering should be good to go and paint.
just remember to water down your fist coat of paint with a 50%water to 50% paint this will seal the plaster and stop the paint from pealing off. once you've done your fist coat of paint your good to go with 100% paint 2 coats of top coating your all good and looking great . ope this helps kind regards ben Franklin creative joinery and building solutions.
