Hood Problem

So I just got my 07 Camry SE painted by an independent Spray Painte and the car looks great. However today when I went to go open my hood, I notice that my hood would not stay open and that it kept on wanting to close. Anyone know what the problem might be? I checked the hood struts but they seem to be in tack but just wont stay open.

Any help on this????

Maybe the struts are broken, go back and raise some hell.

Replace the stuts. They are due and likely had nothing to do with the paint, unless of course they put so much paint on the hood that they can no longer support it.
