Alicia:

What medium are you using the Gamblin Flake Replacement with?

If it is something akin to an alkyd or turps, then I wouldn't worry too much about it. Let it dry for an extra day or two if you feel cautious.

The thing you want to be sure of is that the underpaint is as dry as it can be before you start painting on top of it. Alkyds will pose no problems to you as they dry quite fast and dry rock hard.
