Si, if it's for Tuffs you can use two to four depending on how faded they are and on how much water you use, plenty of salt too.  Get Dylon Multi Purpose Dye in Scarlet as that's pretty close to the original colour but check with RomBlerk as he has dyed many red tuffs on the journey to becoming a DyeMaster Jedi  :daumenhoch:.
