Default hood latch

My hood latch seems to stick a lot lately. I pull the hood release and it works, but the hood wont pop up, i have to hit the hood for it to come up a bit,,, i know this is a common problem and i was wondering what all you guys did to fix it?

Put some grease on it so it will release.

A little WD-40 will not only loosen the hood latch but will cure a dog of the mange. It works wonders to on the hood hinges of earlier Chevy pickups. Spray some on the hinges and you dont have to attach angle iron to brace the hood![&o]
