Usually a CaCl solution- used because it is the cheapest way to add the most fluid weight. Others are not so corrosive, but give fewer pounds per gallon. Pumped through the valve stem, usually 3/4 full, then inflated to normal psi.

In case you didn"t know, calcium will eat your rims if it leaks. The tire shops around here use a mix of beet juice, I guess the cows love it when it leaks out in the field.
