G-g-g-reetings, Amanda,
Wow! Frozen solid!
When you get the chems back up to temp, watch for solid material that
hasn't gone back into solution.
You may have to warm a solution to maybe 45 degrees and stir quietly to get it to re-dissolve.
If it won't, filtering's not good beause you'd be removing some amount of chemical component
and throw off the balance of what's left
Hypo/fix probably has the most solid material dissolved in it, but warming and stirring should get the crystals all back in solution.
Also, in future: Kodak's help page - email or 888 number live.
