Just a little stone chip that most just fill and prime over but they hide the nastiness under the surface. These minor chips have opened up the paints surface allowing moisture to pe*****te the steel and causing rust. A thorough paint strip and sand with 80g is the only way to remove and not have these imperfections show up again 6months later in your fresh paint job.
I like to epoxy prime sealing the bare metal with 30mins of stripping as the bare metal is open to the air therefore rusting as you look at it.
