We fixed the hole and then respread the entire ceiling with the identical thick-napped roller they used.
One that had an inch-and-a-half nap paint roller.
After applying the original slow-drying plaster, they wet the heavy nap roller paint roller, rolled the wet plaster, took a trowel, and lightly went over it, giving it the illusion of a knockdown dash.
No problem if you know what you’re looking at.
We’re sharing some learned knowledge about how to repair a damaged plaster ceiling with a joint drywall compound; what is a joint drywall compound? It’s just gypsum mud with accelerators in it.

You buy the bags depending on your skill level.
20-minute compounds mean when mixed, you have 20 minutes to apply before it sets. The 40-minute compound, 40 minutes to apply, and so on, from 5 minutes to 20, 40, 60, 90, to an hour and a half.
All you do is add water.
FYI, if your buckets and drill paddles are dirty or full of residues due to not cleaning well the last time you used them, this will set the mud much faster; always wash your tools.
