Hello and welcome to the forum,
i tried deinterlacing with tdeint and bob with repal
I didn't quite understand that. If unblending you usually bob first, followed by the unblender you're using. They aren't perfect, especially at scene changes where the pattern is most likely to change and where it may take a few frames for it to latch onto the new pattern. The most you can hope for is that there aren't too many blended frames remaining and that it plays smoothly. Having said that, though, if you aren't happy with the results when using RePAL, then you might try MOmonster's SRestore which comes included as part of his R_Pack:

yea i bobed first with tdeint(mode=1) then followed by repal() and was left with some artifacts at the scene changes :(
Tried tdeint(mode=1) followed by srestore() still have artifacts at scene changes :(

You're a real perfectionist, eh? :)

I do lots of unblending work myself, and don't much worry about the blended scene changes. If it bothers you, go through the movie and replace the blended frame at the scene changes with one good frame before or after using FreezeFrame:
