Default DPF - post clean 'long run'

Hi, I had a few OBD codes that indicated that my DPF might be full (albeit no dashboard messages) so I cleaned it on car.
The codes have gone but there is now the amber warning which I believe means that I should take the car (2010 3.0D V6) for a reasonable run. Whether logical or not, as I don't get to do many proper runs I plan to use a second tin of the cleaning foam prior to doing this.
How long can the interval be between cleaning and the trip please?
I have a journey planned on Tuesday but am wondering whether I am safe to perform the clean over the weekend or at worst case Monday?
