''blebbing''??? Is that southern speak for bubbling?

If paint is bubbling then you must sand it down to bare metal. If the paint bubbles are large & you attack them with a screwdriver you are likely
to end up with a hole in the panel or seam. Treat the affected area with Kurust or similar type of anti- rust product. Use filler as required & the usual primer/top coat.

Admire your handywork quickly before rust shows again! :(
