In this episode, I was able to pick the brain of a professional furniture refinisher with over 24 years of experience! I asked him questions about his process from start to finish on how to safely and properly refinish wood furniture. Gary LeClerc from StripWell shared so many great tips and tricks for getting the best results, including products he uses in his refinishing shop, what to do and what NOT to do when stripping furniture, and more.

Gary LeClerc knows is a passionate artisan and skilled craftsman. He grew up watching and learning from his father who taught him from a very early age what makes a great piece of furniture and how to renew it back to a beautiful and functional state of being. Gary's reputation spread throughout the Northeast as he became known for his ultra-creative and collaborative spirit which would consistently yield showroom quality Mid Century Modern and Scandinavian furniture for his clients.
In 2021, Gary launched his new company, Stripwell, and released Stripwell's flagship product QCS Vintage Finish Remover after several intense months of development and testing. QCS stands for Quick, Clean and Safe and it offers refinishers and restorers at any skill level a safe and effective alternative to dangerous stripping chemicals that they would normally use for their projects.
Gary hopes to use his nearly 24 years of furniture refinishing and restoration experience to help others and that begins with QCS and making the stripping process a step that no longer has to be scary or intimidating.
