Could be a number of things . First then would be to have the inside panel off as see if there is anything inside .
If not then likely to be surface rust , could even have been something as minor as a chip in the paint that’s then rusted and popped .

How far up the pillar is it ? Seen quarters brazed in about mid way up the pillar before which have then had little bubbles of surface show up . Best thing to do it treat it before it makes a hole bud .

Yup personally I would lacquer the whole Shell doing something like this because blended lacquer always dies back over time . There are no solid lines to paint to so they don’t really have much choice . That would be minimum really doing what they have said , what colour is it , doesn’t look a stock colour ?
