Lint on Moonroof

I use those cotton chenille mitts to wash, but I get lint from those that "sticks" to the rough "fabric" that surrounds the moonroof. The black stuff? Anyone know what I'm talking about? LOL. It doesn't happen on my friends bmw because his is 2 years old and it looks like the black stuff has worn away. Mine is still new so it looks like it grabs the lint from the mitt. Anyway, my question is--is there a way to get rid of the lint? I've tried rinsing hard with the hose along the edge but that still doesn't get rid of it. Short of spending 10 hours picking it off does anyone have this problem that can offer any suggestions? Keep in mind the lint from the mitt appears to get pulled off by the black stuff. The mitts don't leave lint on the car during the rest of the wash.

Tilt up the moonroof.
Use either Masking tape or a lint brush (the kind used to get lint off of clothing, either the velour type or the sticky type will do) to get the back and the sides.
Push back the moonroof half-way or so.
Use the tape or lint brush same method for the front.
