May I make a recomendation?
Go to the bodyshop and take a razor blade and gouge out one of these bubbles.
You may find that the problem is that they are using plastic filler and not
lead.
This is not entirely a bad thin as new fillers are much better than bondo
(never ever use bondo except to put in the bottom of a paper bag and inhale)
The really bad thing you may find is rust under the primer this indicates
that the flux was not properly nutralized befor leading. Your body shop , if
it really did lead your car, may only lead one or two a year if at all and
they might be out of practice.
Either way make sure you are getting what you are paying for....
Professional quality work.
You're in LA right ?
Where is the car I'd like to see what the problem is.
