Polish out what you can, first. If you lack the materials for this, buy one of the headlight polishing kits and use that. They generally have 2000 grit and 3000 grit paper, along with polish and a polishing wheel.
Remove the rust in the scratches and bubbled areas. I would stay away from POR 15 and other "rust treatment" products. For the rust bubbles, I'd use a Dremel tool and an appropriate bit. You want to get down to smooth, shiny metal. I'd prime it with a good self-etching primer. I'd buy that from an auto body materials supply store.
Then touch up the paint, let it dry for a week and then color sand and polish it. If it's a basecoat/clearcoat paint, you'll have an extra step.
You can use a spray can with a paint mask, an airbrush, or a small brush to flow the paint into the defect. I use a 000 to 00000 sable brush for touch-ups. Get one from an artist's supply store.
You can do this, just take your time and use good materials.
