Paint manufactures do not guarantee bond of paint on new plaster if not fully dry though their is special paint for damp surfaces due to dampness. cant comment on flynnys special paint as im not aware of any emulsion that can be used.
What they are doing can be a hit and miss.
Seen major messes on jobs were its been hit too soon.some paint manufacturers state 8 weeks on float,set.

Also people seem to have idea what a mist coat is wtf
Your not right there are permeable paint for this, I advise all customers to let it fully dry out, but in answer to your original question there is special paints.
Educate yourself and do a search on Google, it's quite simple.

I got a feeling painting wet plaster will only allow the hidden mould to grow thus creating problems further down the line
There is also a special paint for hidden mould, but I can't find it any whereI got a feeling painting wet plaster will only allow the hidden mould to grow thus creating problems further down the line

Down to the painter or plasterer I suppose and let's not forget these guys donate their time for free (obviously not the cast).

Skims on plasterboard with permeable paint you will get away with any solid work and you will be in bother as it will blister or peel.
Most contract emulsion is permeable if you read tin,,,,Leyland etc,,,,
They programmes as said are blitz jobs,,,bet there is major snagging.
