How do you get that carbon fiber look?

The carbon Fiber effect I learned from one of those R/C painting guides.
All you need is the matting material, Faskolor Charcoal w/a hint of FasSilver & FasBlack. Lay the matting down on the bed, shoot one light even coat of the Charcoal/Silver mix. Remove the matting, and when dry, shoot with 3 light even coats of Fasblack.
Very simple technique for such a fantastic effect.

What kind of matting material is it? Just plastic mesh?

No, it's more like a rubber non skid matting for tool boxes or shelves. I couldn't find a link to it on the web, but this is what it looks like....
