We want to Glue Copper to MDF
Is this copper a clean,full piece or does it have artwork/cut-outs,scroll work?Etc.
I would think using Gorilla glue would hold it tightly,although it tends to expand over the edges while curing,if this is not desirable,don't use that one.
Exterior glue(as I think this is going to be used outside,hence the MDF) would do the job well enough too.I suggest coating the entire project with a finish for long term protection(moisture and debris wouldn't get behind the copper then.)
Am I close to what you are asking?

Hi all:
Check out these links... great info. On copper venner work with MDF:
How to Make Copper Countertops - Get Up! and DIY (http://www.getupanddiy.com/projects/coppercountertop/index.php)
VeneerSupplies.com - Search Results for "copper MDF adhesive" (http://www.veneersupplies.com/search.php?search_query=copper+MDF+adhesive&x=29&y=11)
Otherwise, Gorilla glue should also work as KBC suggested, but really need to know more about your specific application to say more...
