OK, this is a project currently in my shop, so it's sort of on topic.

I am repairing a center console for a Boston Whaler boat.  The fiberglass 
center console has an adhesive textured sticker on it for the surface.

See the pictures here...

It's the black covering in the pics.

Does anyone know of a source of this material?  If not, what it might be 
called as I have been Googling everything I can think of but can't find 
any.

I only need a piece the size of the top of the console.

I'm guessing this stuff needs to be tough to withstand salt, sun, and the 
elements.

Any ideas, or points in the right direction will be greatly appreciated!
