As said below just let all the air out and hook up to start pumping. If you are going to fill to just below the valve stem when it is at the top of the tire then you might need to unhook and let the air bleed out to finish filling. You run the same amount of air pressure with fluid as without, just make sure the stem is in the air pocket when you check it. Rinse off any spills. A word of advice it to watch the valve core in the months after you fill it. I have gotten some core housings this year that only lasted a few months before they corroded off. If the cores start to leak then put them at the top of tire and get new core housings and replace them. Takes a minute for both tires. Wouldn't hurt to replace them every couple years anyhow to be safe.
From past experience you have and will get much criticism for deciding to use CACL in your tires. I deal with it on a daily basis and find that it never has corroded metal it didn't touch. Just do the maintenance and take care of any leaks and you will be fine. The just isn't any cheaper way to weight a tire which is why it has been around for seveal decades.
