Because of the opacity of oils, I'd suggest going with lighter colors than you think you need. Like, I use Abteilung 502 Faded UN White for doing highlights on most colors. I use a 502 blue copper oxide for highlights on Panzer Grey (I like the blue tones).
Other than that, you may find you need to do everything in one pass. Because even if you come back a week later, oils may not be dry, so additional work may remove previous oil techniques.

Isn't the oil dot technique a form of color modulation? There should be a few posts about the oil dot technique for Panzer gray.
