My husband purchased a house that has an 800lb metal bathtub in it that was previously painted , but the paint job was not correctly done so now it's peeling . It's too costly to remove the tub and bathfitters is too expensive so I don't know what we can do.

Have it professionally reglazed. I have had a number of tubs done over the years with excellent results.

Our daughter had her claw foot tub re-glazed and it wasn't expensive.
My tub had been painted by previous owner and it looks like it was the wrong type of paint , so now the paint in peeling off in a few areas . I tried using alcohol to remove the old paint but its not working . If i dont remove the old first , it will look horrific
