Sticking handbrake

The handbrake is sticking on the calipers on the missus's TF. Basically pull the handbrake on and it never comes on until you tap calipers with a hammer and the little jolt just frees the stick and it locks on. Same issue with releasing it.



Any clues as to if this is a common fault/solution or will a simple strip down and clean up resolve it? planning to do it this weekend so need to order any parts/seals/slider boots etc today (suggested place to buy brake recon bits from anyone?) if its any more than just a strip down, wire brush and re-grease.
