Subject : Surface preparation for gluing

I believe that it is a good idea to sand lightly the substrate and veneer (such as MDF) before gluing. This can be a time-consuming and tricky ( the veneer is so thin ) step, but it's worth it to remove dirt and oxidation that could affect the bond. Any opinions?
