The present invention provides a vortex motion paint mixing machine having a paint container holder spinning about its own axis and orbiting about a second axis positioned at an angle to the container spin axis that has a paint mixing assembly pivotally connected to a base, one or more viscoelastic polymer dampers and a control arm. Another embodiment of the invention is a method of damping vibration in a paint mixing machine for mixing paint in cylindrical or non-cylindrical containers that includes the steps of: a) providing a receptacle for receiving one of a cylindrical or a non-cylindrical paint container on a mixing assembly; b) pivotally mount the mixing assembly on a base; c) providing one or more viscoelastic vibration dampers between the mixing assembly and the base; d) connecting the mixing assembly and the base with a control arm; e) rotating a paint container in the receptacle in a spinning motion about an axis of the receptacle and in an orbiting motion about an axis separate from the axis of the receptacle; and f) damping vibration between the mixing assembly and the base such that vibration in the base caused by the rotating paint container is reduced by the viscoelastic vibration damper.
