Your local parts store will have several different types of stop leak. There is the liquid stuff that looks like a lumpy milk shake to the solid stuff that looks like powdered aluminum. I have used both. The liquid never worked too good for me but the powder works great. Both are meant to be only temporary. Are you sure it the radiator and not the hoses? I don't think the stop leak will work to well on hoses.

If you want to go the easy way, there's a product called Bar's Leaks that can be found almost anywhere( parts stores, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, etc.) that works very well at plugging even holes big enough to stick a #2 pencil in. The only drawback in my opinion is that if it'll plug a leak, it may clog your radiator as well.
