Painting Rendered Wall

[handyman11]

I have been going back and forth regarding the issue of what paint to use on damp proofed walls. Basically i had a room skimmed, but there was one section which was rendered also - injected, rendered and skimmed. I will be painting it after about two weeks of the plastering being done and so i need to use a breathable paint. I think I will use a contract white paint, though some tell me that ordinarywhite dulux brilliant white matt emulsion does not have vynal in it either, which would make sense as it does not have any sheen. ANyway, if i get this wrong and the wall cannot breathe what is the worst case scenario - what will happen?

I simply cannot wait as I have people booked in to put flooring down, build shelves, put radiator on etc.

Thanks
