Default Screwing MDF

Hi All

Having problems with putting screws into the edge of 18mm MDF.

I've tried correct size pilot holes and special MDF screws from SPAX but I
still get splitting and a slight bulge where the screw is.

Special MDF screws are best (or least worse) but still noticeable.

Any tips?

Dave
