blimey - what kind of fire!

:o

where abouts on the dash has it melted?

If you've got replacements from the standard grey dash and its plastic (like the centre vent console) then any gloss spray paint will do. Just make sure you prep the surface properly 1st - this usually mneans degreasing it (because you can almost guarantee someone will have used some kind of shiney dash cleaner which is silicone based), lights sand it just to key the surface, thin coat of primer and then paint.

If the plastic has that mottled surface, go easy on the paint otherwise it'll stand out.
