Message me for a quote on refinishing, painting and repair!

Here at Jason Borton Stripping & Restoration, no furniture refinishing job is "too large," so excuse me while I whip out this 120 grit sandpaper and take it all off for you!

It's amazing how much difference it makes when you allow me to put some tight, black leather on your seat! This late 1800's rocker also got a full saturation refinish that refreshed the original dark walnut varnish, and with a little TLC it's ready for another century of ass-to-couch!

People ask why I haven't been stripping lately. Well...have you ever seen a guy strip in the winter? It's never as impressive, especially if you expect him to finish when it's cold out. I do make exceptions, and here is one of them: BP John nightstand (legendary defunct PDX manufacturer based in John's Landing) circa 1955. This solid maple piece had been sorely neglected; I used pigmented grey stain for a weathered vibe, and I didn't like the look of the back, so I removed it and cut out the middle to create a more streamlined appearance. I reattached the remaining pieces and customized them which is something I've been wanting to try (I'm a w***e-able artist, but the lettering came out pretty well). Finishing touches are a hidden drawer compartment, a touch-activated shelf light, and a smartphone charging port, meaning that the new owner can simultaneously and conveniently conceal a handgun, see which book is on the shelf if the room is dark AND stream episodes of Kenan & Kel without worrying about their IPhone battery: it's all about creature comforts nowadays people!

Nice rack! I took the cinder block shelving concept and made it "broke college student chic" by staining the 2x6's and putting a polyurethane coating on the pavers. Who still collects CDs? This nerd right here!

Most of the action I get, I get for free, and it's easy to see why: most people don't want to finish all over something they see as trash, no matter how good it looks afterwards. It's so easy though! This old record shelf took 45 minutes of hot friction before being hosed down with black paint. The last user poked a hole in the back, but that one was blown out and you don't want splinters on your cable, so I drilled my own and now it's fresh and clean!

This bed was being thrown away, all the veneer peeled off the footboard and the rails were the wrong color. NOT SO FAST! I got railed by popping that cherry and going black, got some new trim cut for the footboard (don't grab onto it too hard, though...it's glued on not stapled) and now this bad boy could be YOUR personal playground. Get at me, ya little nasties!

My dear friend Edward Hrebec III loves to smoke pipe(s), the bigger the better! I found this old, beat-up caddy that was originally made for whisky glasses and refinished it so Ed could proudly display all the pipes he had put in his mouth over the years. Sorry Ed, you've been outed as a long stem-loving ho**ah w***e!

Repair deal for September: Bring in a bed you broke during s*x and get 10% off; 15% if you describe the act with vigorous attention to detail! For example, the top of this headboard was torn off by the owner 'in flagrante delicto.' A thick load of hot white glue and some metal clamps was all it took to be back in business!

Contrary to appearances, not all of my projects are huge. Sometimes, I just want to finish someone's box, and painting it white never suited my palette, so this neglected crate is now a poppin' cherry stain!

Look who got RAILED! Long story short, I found an espresso, solid wood queen bed in the trash, but the rails were mismatched and the wrong finish. Here at JBS, we want your FINISH to be just right, so I popped that CHERRY and WENT BLACK! Looking TOP HOLE, sir!

"Adjacent to refuse IS refuse." - Jerry Seinfeld
Not so fast, Mr. Comedy! I found this shelf next to a pile of trash and within hours it had been not only sanded hard but lovingly sprayed multiple times, painted with a thick, protective coating. New shelves were cut and now someone has a new shelf for their garage...or dungeon!

At Jason Borton Stripping, we realize that black latex is s*xy as hell, but we FIRMLY discourage it's use on furniture; the lowest circle of hell is reserved for whoever used latex paint on this beautiful antique rocking chair. I lasted fifty hours sanding this baby raw before finishing all over it with a beautiful espresso stain. I went black, and I'm never going back...rocking chairs are too much work!

Someone I really care about wanted this mirror that her father gave her to be restored and repaired. These cheval mirrors are mass produced and inexpensive, but because it was a sentimental item, I did it. Thanks to Jared Nagreen for making a new leg to replace the one that was broken; good to have ol' Chip Christmas around when I need to do do something that involves functioning brain cells/not being drunk and stumblebum.
