edit; didn't realised you're using tubeless, best to get either a pump like the Topeak Joe Blow Booster, or use Co2 cannister to inflate tyres, need a proper boost of air to get tubeless to work generally.

Always got bad results with co2 canisters. Low temperature congeals the liquid pretty rapid and doesn't flow around the rim well. We managed to wrangle one of these and it's yet to fail.
Decided I'm going to build the wheelset anyway, then just try them out on different frames as they come along.

I guess, tried different things for two hours. Pinched the beads together, soaped up the sides, try and "help" the beads on the rim. After a lot of swearing and pumping like a mad man I called a bike shop and asked if they had an air compressor. Showed up, one squirt of air and the beads popped. Squirted in the Stans latex through the stem, another blast of air and I walked out of there shaking the wheel while I walked back to my car.
