I need to tile a small patch of MDF. It'll only be three maybe four tiles. Do I need to prepare the MDF in any way first? Perhaps rough the surface up a bit to give the tile adhesive something to grab on or would I need to paint it with MDF primer first?
 
I'd PVA it (or BAL tile primer). Probably worth roughing the MDF up with some coarse sandpaper first as well.
