There was an article in FSM a while ago where a guy made asphalt out of black-grey acrylic paint and finely ground cat litter. It looked real once laid out, sanded smooth, and lines, etc. painted on it. I don't remember wheit was though.

Fine black sand paper works quite well for this application.
