The main reason to use the PC or similar unit is that they are orbital, as a result far less likely to burn the paint for someone less experienced.
I don't think there is an orbital air tool. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Regarding the DA polisher - how is the Porter Cable on other paints? Any experience among this group? What about air driven polishers? I would rather use an air tool, but suspect that even a little oil from the exhaust would show up in the paint.
I'd welcome any information or opinions.
