The one thing you don't want to spray on it is WD40, it is a petroleum base product and it will attract dust from the air. There are a number of really good synthetic based spray lubricants on the market and any of them will work well for you.

The latch in side of the car is just a handle that you pull to pop the hood. My step father just went out there and used a screw driver to pull the latch that locks the hood to the side and the hood popped open. But the handle that's in side of the car still feels like it's kind of hard to pull. Otis Blue [EMAIL PROTECTED] BBS Press Service, Inc.

Have some one push down on the front of the hood while you try to pull the latch. What kind of car is this and can you describe the latch inside the car? -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> ]On Behalf Of Otis Blue Sent: Friday, February 09, 2007 11:43 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Frozen car hood Hi everyone, Well I just ran into a problem with my car. The hood of my car is frozen stuck and I can't get it open. Do anyone have any ideas on what I can do to unfreeze it? When I pull the handle that pops the hood, it seems that it's hard to pull. I was told by someone else once I get it open, spray some WD40 on the latch part that catches to the frame of the car. All suggestions will be appreciated.
