Morphology
reconsolidate = consolidate (semi-transparent) = re + con + solid + ate
Adding 're-' to 'consolidate' clearly gives the meaning 'make firm or secure again' for this sense.
Etymology
Reconsolidate is made from re- 'again' and consolidate 'make solid', like the word solid. That's why to reconsolidate something is to make it firm or strong again after it has been weakened.
