Oops!
The only hairy/brushy thing that should ever come into close contact with a car is boar's hair - not even horse hair.
And even then, 4" bristle length minimum.
But definitely not on a Honda! FFS, sneeze hard enough, and the snatters will scratch the paint!

So shirly it makes more sense to take care of it?

I use the local polish guys to do our work vans and they always do a decent job. I usually clean my own car but occationally I will let them do it and ive not had any problems so far.
The first time I did tell them that they should be carefull, and they always get out clean cloths when they do my car.

Clean cloths are the least of your worries - a decent mitt to minimise swirls/scratches.
Next time it's clean, have a look at it under the sodium light in a local petrol station, or direct sunlight.
It's not supposed to look like an ice rink!
