Repeat to fade.
A good trick is to think of the finger vibe as rubbing a spot off the neck of the guitar with your finger in a circular motion.

by the way, each time I see your sig it makes me chuckle.. every time! killer.
Watch this for inspiration.
Basically Satch takes the first part of the solo, utterly technically kills it, slam dunk.
Vai takes second- restrained and wonderfully tasteful (for him).
Brian May takes the part of last solo- blows both into the ocean by a huge distance.... with feel and phrasing.
(memorable also for the backing singer oversinging in a masterful way.)

The best way to make sure your vibrato is applied judiciously is literally to sing what you want to hear, or at the very least have it in your mind's ear. But singing is the best, because it is most likely to be the most natural and give the best effect.
For example, holding a long note steady then warming it at the end with a slow, controlled, restrained vibrato gives a beautiful effect, but is quite difficult for guitarists to develop from scratch without knowing the sound beforehand.
Once you know exactly what you want to hear, and if you can listen carefully to the sound your guitar is making, you should be able to close the gap.

I also practiced note values with vibrato- quarter notes, triplets, half notes, whole notes- you'll never need more note values than that.
