again I'm looking at blobs of solder refusing to bond with the cable.

Use acid flux (plumbers) and a blowlamp.

Get proper end-caps (cost next to nothing) and just crimp them gently on.
It does not need to be soldered. The end-caps are designed to be crimped.
Trust me, I've done a great many in my time and they've never come off
accidentally (you do want to be able to remove it sometimes to strip the
bike down without destroying the cable).
