I used this tool to rivet skins on an RV-9 and it is very gentle letting you rivet without marks.

Does a beautiful job. No swirls !
The rubber cup extends about 20 mils beyond the flat face of the set. To properly seat the rivet, the rubber must be fully compressed. This takes roughly 10-15 lb. on the gun, a fairly high number for delicate substructures. I tried sanding the cup to reduce that pressure a bit. A major mistake as the friction of the cup to the skin provides the lateral stability. Mine is now useless as it dances all around uncontrollably. Oh well...
