Angry Bubbled Paint Under Gas Vent

We have a 2001 31ft Sonic with custom paint and I filled my tanks up last Friday and Tuesday afternoon noticed that under one of my vents the paint had bubbled. The bubbling is about a foot long and under that is residue from the gas that leaked out of the vent. It has not been that hot here in New Jersey for the gas to come out of the vent. We have had gas come from the vents before in real hot weather, but never a problem. Has anyone had this problem??? Any suggestions???

Thanks Carrboy!! That is what happened to ours, the colors bubbled right off of the gel coat. It's just like the gas got under the paint and lifed it right up.

Maybe we should get a big vinyl bandaid to put over it!!
