assuming it is a large area
you have to wash it with acid or TSP then recoat/glaze it. its really alot of trouble to recoat a tub as far as I know. if you reallly want to do it, i would hire a professional and not DIY it. and of course that would require action on the landlords part.
anything else is gonna be a quick fix and really won't last.
best idea is convince the landlord to replace the tub IMO.
if they are really small areas that are cracked and chipped they do have repair kits they make for porcelain and fiberglass tubs...
go to lowes or home depot, they make tub painting kits and tub repair kits. i personally would be skeptical of those but seems like theyd be worth a shot.

What is the tub made of? Fiberglass/metal? Is it a paint like substance that is peeling? Is it in chips or flexible pieces?

qft. It's time to replace the tub, unless some dipshit just painted it and it's just the paint peeling up. Landlord is probably not likely to replace it for you though. Maybe sand a hole in it? I'd bet he'd replace it pretty quick if it were leaking.

If it is just a small spot you could use epoxy to seal it. You could probably use polyester resin which is even cheaper, you get it near the bondo in the auto repair section of most diy stores. It is used for the layup of fiberglass cloth, don't get the pink bondo though. you can even buy colorants to tint the epoxy if you like.

Epoxy would seal it.OP ,as said ,this is a job for the pro's .It is a certain type of enamel used.I don't do that type of work,but I am a plumber.I know it is a bitch if you're not a pro.

The kits from local hardware stores work quite well as long as you can follow directions.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
