It’ll dent if you drop something on it, even when glued to ply or MDF. As Fox says, getting a roll to sit flat, unroll without creasing or bending and not look shit when DIYed is not something I would try. I have many years experience of sheet metalworking.
AFAIK brass is chemically very similar to copper, just a bit more of whatever makes it pink. Call Redwood Innovations and ask them what to use, they’re great and give adhesive advice for free. They’ll sell you a white label version of most expensive fancy glues.
