for a 15 second video of the popping.

I don't have to heat it up much, just an average of 90-110 Fahrenheit, but after an hour and a half of web browsing, iTunes, and word processing it does this at a 90 degree angle. If I let it sit overnight it goes back to normal, but I have noticed the hinge is consistently stiffer from about 70*-120*, while opening ONLY. The computer is a mid-2012, 13", bought a month or so ago. Planning on taking it to Apple but I'd rather not have a new computer taken apart. Anything that fixes this besides floss? it just started a few days ago.
