i've used dupli-color vinal spray many times with great resultson dashpads doorpanels consoles visors etc never a problem . just make sure you clean and prep the items to be dyed and a couple of light coats works best

I used the spray can Duplicolor Vinyl/Plastic paint. Here is a before and after. The door panels feel soft and squishy just like it was dyed, not spray painted.

SEM is available in many of the better parts stores. They'll mail you a color chart if you're willing to wait a couple of days.
