Wait till it dries it it much easier to peel off dry silicone than to smear it when wet.

I have allot of experience with flowable silicone.  
What ever you do deal with it when its dry.if you try to clean it up while its wet your just going to get a big mess.

Wait until it cures. Clean-up will be fast and easy. Just make sure you get it all out of where you don’t want it to be and you should be fine.
