yep but would need to be properly cleaned and keyed to remove crease and give the paint a surface it can stick to.

Make sure you sure a plastic primer as well as this will be able to flex with the plastic.

I painted the dash of a mk3 astra a few years ago black. Used flexible vinyl spray fro Halfords. Worked a treat, the dash was slightly spongy, not a solid plastic and it didn't crack or peel.
