"Question about the Terminator films"

In the first film, Reese explains the basics of time travel, and says that you need to be covered by living material to pass through, which is why Arnie has the living tissue exterior.

But I've always wondered how the T-1000 and now the T-X got through. Surely they're not covered by organic material? It's just poncy liquid metal. Pah. Someone (MoJo, probably) explain this to me. And they can't argue that time-travel was improved, because the humans had won and they blew up the equipment after Reese and Arnie were sent back.

Which doesn't explain how the T-1000 and T-X were sent back, and how an Arnie model killed John Connor even after the humans had won...Hmm...

I've lost the point of my post now. Just explain. Please.
