probs cleaning TTII's

i have had alot of probs outta my TTII's which started at day one of having them mounted...for example the first day i got em i went to my GF's house to show them to her and onced i got there, her freakin dog pissed on em....well apparently i didn't clean it off then and there cause i didn't think itd hurt anything...well the next day i cleaned my car and noticed where the damn dog had pissed on my wheel there was like a Yellow/brown Stain on the wheel that will not come off with ANY cleaner...so i just kinda gave up and figured what the hell it doens't look THAT BAD...a few weeks later i was on a backroad lookin for a party(backroad was blacktopped not gravel) and my wheels got fithy cause it had been raining...well like above i cleaned them off the next day and where there was mud build up on them it left like a yellow/brown stain that will not come off...is this normal with TTII's or any other polished wheels?

Past polish...I don't know other than taking them to a wheel shop.
I will have to keep an eye on this.
Just in case mine get something like that on them.

You're crazy that's over kill

Everytime I suggest wetsanding TTIIs someone always says that to me but it works and I think they are easier to keep polished. Look better than new once done too
