How do you properly and economically treat a blister

Hi there,
I have a blister on the rear hatch of a 1990 300TE Smoke Silver. Upon close inspection, it looks to be a bit rusty as well.

This blister is about 1 inch in diameter, and is in a REALLY noticable spot. What is the normal procedure short of painting the whole hatch?

Has anyone ever used a spot blaster? I have an aerospace quality spotblaster that has nozzles that allow you to blast a spot as small as 1/2 inch without blasting anymore than that. If I blast off this blister, it will basically feather itself. If I then use MB touch up and primer...would that be about as good as it gets?

Thanks
