Default Razor Blade removing chunks.

Thought I'd try the razor blade method on the back deck near the gas tank lid. There are a few areas that lifted off like the attached pic.

There appears to be only 1 repaint, with black primer the last layer.

* Is this normal?
* Could this be a mold defect that was filled?
* Did I use too much heat?

Thanks,
Jeff

most likely getting it a little hot. dont try to get all the way down to glass. the black primer will wet sand off real easy.
there is also factory repairs that do this.
