The copper powder I use is

Not that I ever would if it was illegal, but is is possible to mix 4-5 kgs of powder in a litre/kg of infusion resin.    Makes it stiff to apply and very prone to runs, so a handful of Cab-O-Sil helps.

No.  Would be interesting to try, but suspect it would not adhere as well as the epoxy so might not withstand scraping.  On the other hand, the paint might wear away quicker, exposing the copper without having to sand it.
