    You do not need to prime it, just a wipe over with a damp sponge to remove surface dust

    I would prime it with sbr bond if you are sticking 6mm down and not putting any fixings in it it tends to curl off the bed if its not primed

    Hardi say no need to prime, just wipe as Dave says. I do prime though, both ways are fine IMO.
