I'm soon to put a how to post of repair and re-cover vinyl w/o seams dashboard.
No, I won't. For the imperfections not to show, the solution is to make the underlying surface...perfect. Pretty much like with body/paint work. Spraying on the glue makes a big different over brushing it on too.

The soft touch won't be there, but it's not really there with the original pads neither. They are in foam for security legislation reasons.

Looking forward to read your post on recovering.
