what to use to lub sunroof?

[Kneale Brownson]

I used White Lithium grease (that promptly turned black) because that was 
the "cleanest" looking stuff I had around.
I presume the silicone grease would look like thick Vaseline, so might 
appear cleaner.  I'd wonder about the possibility of  silicone attacking 
the plastic bits.  Anyone know if it would be detrimental?
