Hi Justin,
Just put it in a bucket of warm water, that will turn it liquid again.
So far the epoxy I have (nearly gone) stayed liquid if a bit thicker than initially. My hardener went really thick, though. Warm water works for that too.
Do the warming and a small test mix and panel with glass cloth if you're still worried.
