My builder approached me today to discuss exterior/interior paint colors. He has recommended Berger paint for both. Any experience with this brand? For the exterior, I was originally thinking of recommending that  NEW PLASTER PRIMER DULUX WEATHERSHIELD SUPER PRIMER 5GAL https://www.homepro.co.th/p/227417 be used (Acrylic paint), then a top coat of WATER-BASED EXTERIOR PAINT DULUX WEATHERSHIELD ULTIMA ADVANCE SEMI-GLOSS 5GAL https://www.homepro.co.th/p/1193023, With Berger, a similar option is NEW PLASTER PRIMER BEGER SHIELD WEATHERGUARD E-4000 5GAL https://www.homepro.co.th/p/208207 (Acrylic based) and their water-based exterior top coat https://www.homepro.co.th/p/1220582.  The Berger paints are actually slightly more expensive than DULUX but I have not read many comments about them.  It appears that either option would be ok. Do you agree or have you had any negative issues with Berger (or Dulux) exterior paints.

Berger is listed as best but what ever paint I have used over the years on a new build make sure the surfaces are properly and I mean properly coated.

Otherwise 3 months later.

Yes. I have read on this forum about proper surface preparation/cleaning and don't let them water down the paint, to ensure good adhesion and long-lasting. Want to avoid the result in your pic.

Well don't give them the paint just buy the sealer first and as you say make sure they thin only to recommendations.
