Not the fiberglass, the paint on the sheet rock when it contacts
the top of the tub. *It is pretty messed up too. *I figure sand paper
and dig out any holes and fill the with spackle.

Todd:

Scrape off any loose and peeling paint.

If any surface paper comes off with the paint, then use the self
adhesive fiberglass mesh drywall joint tape over those areas. *Then,
paint that mesh with white wood glue diluted with water to make it into
a paintable consistancy. *As the glue dries, it'll bond the fiberglass
mesh to the paper.

If you have any areas where the paper is missing and the gypsum core is
crumbling, remove the gypsum, fill with drywall joint compound, sand
smooth, remove any dust and then use the fiberglass mesh over that.

THEN, prime and paint over your repairs with a paint specifically made
to be used in bathrooms.

Didn't you leave out the step about caulking the seam between the top
of the fiberglass wall and the wall board?
