Carbon fiber faux finish question...
Has anyone perfected a faux carbon fiber look painting technique? I saw a guy use a drywall mesh tape to spray silver and gray accents over a dark gray/black base on a Discovery Bike Buildoff show a while back and was wondering if anyone has seen anything similar or better in person or on the web. Doesn't look like to many people have pulled it off from what I've been able to find the last two afternoons searching the web.

just use the real thing...
id just use the real thing.... get carbon cloth tape or sheets and soak resin over it and sand/wet sand smooth. the only reason i see this not working out is UV rays break down alot of resins and epoxies.
