How do I repair cracked and chipped glaze of my bathroom tub?

I had my tub professionally reglazed 7 years ago and it recently has started to crack and chip. Someone recommended to use appliance paint to repair the chips and cracks? What is the best option?

    Hi, Donna: Unfortunately, you have probably reached the limit of the life of the re-glaze. Our first one lasted about six years and cracks were abetted by a careless painter. That second re-glaze has been about seven years and we are debating whether to do it again! You can use appliance paint to cover the chips and cracks, but it will not last long. Re-glazing is till cheaper than a new tub!
