wait a minute.... how do you go from air freshener to melted radio cover? What is the air freshener made of? Sulfuric Acid?

I'm just teasing, but please explain more.

 ...maybe you could sand it down and paint it. I dont know how it looks cuz you say its melted. If it just looks bad then you can sand it and paint it but if the whole thing is all deformed then maybe you'll have to get a new one. Get some pics up and we'll try and help you out...

 Try to sue, cause you never know!
Cause that product should not do damage, and there is not a warning on the label is there?

Coffee?
Air Freshners?

eh, haha, I am just joking, but wait, it could really work!

 The same damn thing happened to me when I first got my car. It was an airfreshener with fluid in it. Now I have a melted mark right under my A/C vent. Its only about the size of a penny though

 what ever happened to the good old PINE TREE air fresheners? Am I the only one that still uses then? LOL...I even bought black ones to go w/the flow of the car...and they work man....and you know what here is a secret...if you buy an areosole can...you can spray them and they smell some more....even wetting them with a little of water recharges the smell they give off a little bit, lol....

 I had the same damn thing happen to me yesterday. I got one of those oil ones and after driving for about 20 minutes i looked at it and it was dripping down onto the radio.......luckily it did nothing to it and i cleaned it up......my car smelled good but there is an outline stain in the center on the black plastic trim under the center vents......not sure how it leaked.....i held it upside down and it didn't do anything so I have NO idea........luckily it didn't do anything else but i smelled like a New
Car even after washing my hands........that stuff is strong

 Im down with the old school airfresheners. OR just buy those ones that sit under your seat. Who cares if it spills a little under your seat. Keeps the car smelling wonderful.
