On problem areas where it might be a bit thick as far as the dye goes use a heat gun sparingly to set the color and let cool before respraying. I used two cans of propellent and could not find it locally so order at least two cans. You will not be able to use the last 15% of the propellant can because it will not have enough pressure to spray the dye. A cheap 12 dollar HVLP gun would be better and then just dispose of it after you are finished.
How are the seats holding up? The dash doesn't get much wear besides the sun beating on it. So if it holds up on seats I'd figure the dash would be fine as well.
