Rust Bubble - What to do? 850 1996

Usually caused by a door 'ding' that managed to crack the paint but not dent the metal. This is surface rust. A good sanding down to bare metal, followed by some rust inhibitor, then a coat of primer and silver paint.

Most body shops cannot match the faded paint and will want to paint the entire quarter panel. The cheap shops do not apply rust inhibitors and after painting with water based primer and paint, the rust comes back - I wonder why.
