Using Tiffen warming soft fx filter and white balancing?

Im a hybrid shooter and Im in a bit of a predicament. I have a nisi vnd filter I keep on my camera because I shoot a lot of video and don’t want to constantly swap it out when I switch between photo and video. I love the look of the tiffen warming filters, specifically the warming soft fx one it adds a very nice warming color to the image. I usually white balance with a grey card I keep handy or auto white balance but the problem is if I have the warming filter on the auto white balance or grey card will cancel out the warming effect i believe. I wouldn’t mind locking the wb before adding the filter but that would require me screwing on and off the warming filter all the time. Trying to come up with a good way of quickly getting the filter to attach to the nisi vnd or keep the warming filter on the camera and keep the warming effect without it getting cancelled out ever time I wb. One option would be the do a wb shift but I fear this may deliver wonky results. Thoughts?
