Resurrecting Old Oil paints




I have just done a search trying to find ways to resurrect old tubes of paint. To no avail. I have a couple of tubes of paint that were given to me (half solid)when I started out so they are well and truly second hand so I don't know how old they would be. I have tried soaking them in turps, but they don't seem to come back to life. Does any one have suggestions? The names have also been removed by other more experienced hands, so I am not even sure of the colour names. It just seems a waste to leave bits in the tube. Any suggestions?
