One method I've used is to get a piece of cloth, like an old shirt, and wrap that around a block of wood or other item to rub the rails. I don't think I'd try the oil idea only because any that makes it's way down the side of the rail may cause the paint not to stick. I'd also be careful about dragging anything metal on the rails, even if it appears dull. Besides, as long as you get to the paint before it has a chance to dry completely, I doubt you have enough trouble removing it that you'd need to use something like that.
