The Most Commonly Used Oil

Crude oil that has gone through the process of refining is referred to as virgin and is the most commonly used oil found within a wide spectrum of lubricant products on the market. Virgin oil is newly refined, meaning that it has not been previously used and it sets the bar for oil quality. Once used in any way, virgin oil is then referred to as “used oil” and can then go through further refinement to be considered recycled or re-refined.
