I store it at room temp, its still quite thick then. This adhesive cures by MOISTURE so putting it in the fridge may have started the process. Try letting it warm up and see if it will flow. You may have to cut into the middle of the tube to get to some that will work, hopefully enough for your project.

See if you can manually clean out the hole with a drill bit. That may let you squeeze enough out to use without making a mess.

I have used 5200 FC a lot and usually for best results it is about a 1 day use when you open it at the most. Good stuff.
I have tried to reseal it and did not work as you did.
Ebay usually is much cheaper
