About
Nicole joined the McClean Solutions family business as the lab technician and marketing associate right after graduating from Colorado Mesa University. She’s always been close with her family, which is being put to the test as she works alongside her brother and dad! Nicole brings her creativity and problem-solving skills from her passions for art, music, dance, cooking, and innovation into everything she does. During her first year at McClean, she worked alongside a seasoned chemist, learning the tips, tricks, and science behind carwash chemistry. In the lab, Nicole develops and tests new carwash chemical formulas, while in the office, she’s the creative mind behind memorable TikToks and marketing materials that bring McClean’s “Your Friend in the Business” spirit to life. She enjoys finding ways to make chemistry approachable while staying on top of new technologies in the carwash industry.
Presentation
Making Chemistry Approachable
What’s really happening behind the color, scent, foam, and shine of car wash chemicals? Nicole will break down the chemistry behind everyday car wash products. Even if you never touch a chemical or cover yourself in them every day, understanding the basic science can complement your role in the car wash industry.
We’ll explore surfactants, high- and low-pH presoaks, waxes, titrations, reclaim-friendly chemistry, the innovation process, and more. Nicole will take you through real-world examples from both the lab and the field to make car wash chemistry more approachable.
