If you need a solid black backdrop, lint free, you may want to consider a paper roll in the color of your choice. Much easier to clean...

For portraits and the like, I've used a long (8') piece of black velvet. It does collect a bit of lint, but it's pretty easy to clean as well. I've had it for a couple of years now and it's still going strong. The nice thing about it is that if I want gray, I just throw some light on it and I get a nice textured look.
