Ceramic tiles glue to white melamine?
Hi, I am currently retiling/ renovating my bathroom (1952 pink and black tiles HAVE to go
and what I would like to know is there a glue that will stick ceramic tiles onto the the side of a white melamine bathroom cabinet. This is butted up to the side of the bath on the end that the shower head is at (space restrictions) I was considering using silicone to glue them on then grouting etc as normal, the other alternative I was thinking of was scoring/ removing the white melamine surface from the area that I wish to tile, then sealing with a timber tiling primer and gluing etc as normal.
Any one glued tiles to melamine before?

I've used liquid nails successfully
Sand the area of the melamine to be tiled as this will give a better surface for the glue to stick to.

Hi, would liquid nails cope with the (potentially) wet area, the other concern that I have with liquid nails is that some people in these forums have said that liquid nails will break down after a few years, and will go brittle and release if knocked. ???
