Michele,

My only reservation would be that if the paint were not sufficiently dry, the solvent could take some of it off. There's less risk if oil alone is used, with no solvent. I blot the excess oil off after oiling out if the paint is fairly freshly applied. Very little oil is needed to serve the purpose of oiling out.
