Should I treat this wood before aplying tiles to it?
And..vot vid?


I'd be inclined to give it a weak PVA coat, to stop the moisture being
drawn out of the adhesive before it sets.

Be very careful some tile adhesives warn you off using PVA on wood (even
plaster) as the PVA stops the adhesive soaking into the wood, thus fails to
grip.
