One of the product separated out by saponification was a liquid fat called oleine, was separated from the stearin by compression. Wilson discovered that it could be used as a light lubricating oil and successfully marketed it to English woollen and cotton manufacturers as a cloth oil for mechanical looms where it quickly replaced olive oil. This was the first of a whole new range of lubricating oils that "Price's Patent Candle" would go on to develop. By experimenting with the heavy waste oil and by blending these mineral oils with animal and vegetable oleines, "Price's Patent Candle" developed a range of specific lubricants for rifles, sewing machines, bicycles, steam engines and gas engines.
