You can use any kind of enamel paint, but I would recommend an oil based paint, remove all oil, dirt, grease, dust and simply paint. (spray painting will give you a better finish)
You can paint copper if you use an oil based primer on it first. If I'm painting copper pipe, I generally spray it with a can of grey autobody primer first.
Electrolysis
You shouldn't do this. Where verdigris is thickest is where your copper pipe is going to soon have a pinhole leak. If you paint it, it's much harder to fix in emergency.
Allowing that you clean the metal correctly and use the correct primer.

Assuming you have prepped the cabinets for a new coat of paint (i.e., you primed it correctly) you can add the glaze directly to the new paint color, at whatever ratio you want, for color and effect. (This saves a step). If you're looking for totallly consistent coverage, then add the glaze after you've just painted, while the paint is still a little wet. In addition to this, I also used a copper metallic paint on one wall, with a glaze added to lighten the intense color of the copper. It really worked well. If you want your glaze w/slight color, then add a touch of color (i.e., the paint) directly to it and save yourself a step.
Yes,you can tint it with liquid or dry pigments - although I do not recommend metallic pigment/flakes for beginners.You can even mix metal /aluminum,bronze,copper etc./ powder into resin and also paint with most types of paints,I do spray paint polyresin with same acrylic paint as I use on cars.You can also sand and polish tinted resin for painted-like shiny look.

Copper can turn greenish-White if left /encouraged to oxidize. Otherwise you have to paint it.
Copper Metalic
Most emulsion paint is available at your local hardware store
depends on the type of paint. it could be lead if the paint is lead-based. it could also be a copper-based poison. don't eat it!
