Best suggestion I can offer is to make an extension for your air compressor. It should have a quick connect that can attach to your air hose, then immediately have a 1/4-turn valve for turning the air on/off. Pressurized air should not be allowed to build inside PVC pipe.
Use whatever lengths of 1/2" PVC (not CPVC) pipe you need in order to reach your gutters. Use two 90-degree elbows to direct the air downward into the gutter. Hook everything up, and make certain you have goggles and/or a face shield on.
By avoiding the use of water, you will have less chance of creating a wet-material dam inside the gutter.
As an option, you might also consider using 1/2" rigid metal conduit, and taping the joints and connectors with aluminum tape. Still should not be subjected to 90 PSI, but metal conduit might be a bit easier to go that height.
