Hey Kenneth... There are couple of articles here on painting 3-color DCUs.
Take a look here:
my article
Epi's article
Anders' article
BTW, the difference between two sand colors is not that visible on older uniforms after they have been on the sun for a long time... so don't worry about not seeing the difference.
