Radiator skin leaking

[Kingswood]

hello, ive a 800x600 single radiator in my late 90's house box bedroom.

it recently developed a tiny drip, less than a table spoon a day, and upon further inspection theres rust at the bottom of the skin where it joins the value pipe.

is there anyway i can empty the radiator and fix this? had a quick google and can only find info about leaking nuts and values etc, nit the actually skin.

If you are talking about it rusting at the weld at the tapping at the bottom then nope. The tappings are welded in so they can take the pressure, if your's is rusting out then a new weld probably wouldn't take.
