Condenser leak

I went to recharge my A/C system and after putting in part of the can I could hear refridgerant leaking out. So I found that the bottom of the condenser has a leak in it. Is this repairable with leak sealer or maybe some silicone. Or should I just replace the whole condenser. Thanks.

yes it will have to be replaced silicon will not hold the pressure of the system. Refrigerant will leak out.
