Certainly, a random orbital machine will be able to do this but it will take longer, because of not as much pad rotation - but it can be done...
And if they are really badly UV and age wrecked, nothing will work better than wet block sanding all that off first, getting it down to the 2k-3k final wet sanding, and then bringing the clarity all back with foam wool, then foam pads...
I believe is it Car Pro or someone makes a coating for plastic lenses now that is supposed to have UV protection as well??
