Learning as I go on my first project.  

I glued the side of this rescued 46-1209 where the veneer had separated.  A few days later, the bubble you see in the photo appeared.  I read online that I can either make a thin slit and reapply glue with a syringe, or use an iron and damp cloth.  Any recommendations for this first-timer?

Also visible in the photo is where the black rubber trim/strip broke off.  What is a good replacement?  And does the top "ridge" also need a piece?  There is nothing there (or on the other side) currently -- not sure if it's supposed to be like that or if the piece is missing completely.

Thank you!
