No need for dish soap, bubble juice is the perfect tubeless tire mounting solution. Crazy cheap (99¢ a quart,) slippery when wet, but dries slightly tacky, with very low residue.

Also, if the OP had indeed cut or damaged the kevlar bead, the tire would have mounted quite easily, and then immediately blown off the rim the instant he put air into it. The damage is cosmetic.
