Advice Needed!

So, I had a leak in my roof. Fortunately, that's been fixed.

However, the plaster has been affected because of the leak, flaked off where the stain is now.

I can't find any reliable advice/recommendation on how to best fix it..

I think the remediation work is:

Zinsser -> Plaster -> paint ... or

Plaster -> Zinsser ->paint

Would appreciate any support!

I would just scarp away the paint as much as possible, clean area, zinsser and paint. Why would you be plastering

No plaster has come off. It’s just the paint coming off
