1952 Radiator Replacement

My radiator was leaking in one spot so I took a shop and they fixed the main leak then he tanked again and bubbles came from all over. Especially around the bottom. I suppose the pressure opened up the weak spots.
I don't want use BARS stop leak because it does stop up the water jackets in many cases. Who would you guys reccommend as the best replacement brand?
