Wes,

I've used paper medical tape, like they use to hold gauze wrappings on, to 
simulate a fairly rough canvas or canvas and tarred/car cemented roof.  Thin 
paper material but strong and very sticky so easy to apply.  I apply the tape, 
paint with engine black (a brush works just fine - give it a good heavy coat) 
and then sand the whole thing with a 400 grit stick just to smooth it out some. 
 Apply a second coat of paint and your done.  A nice weathered canvas texture.  
The ultimate texture can be controlled by the sanding and total number of paint 
coats you apply.
