Rad leaking at bottom

[steveoo]

Noticed my radiator has been leaking over night(seems like its been leaking awhile but only just noticed it), Now i've tried my best to stop the flow un till i get someone out to look at it, Is there anything else i can do untill then?

Is it possible i can just tighten the bottom nut up?

Looks like that's a job for a plumber then,

BTW its leaking at the pipe itself where the white PFTE tape is.

This is why there’s a world wide shortage of ptfe tape lol.

First thing I'd try if I came out to that is nipping it up, you can try but it is possible it will make it worse.

Turn it upsidedown.
