Repairing Aluminum radiator

One of my cooling fans was rubbing on my radiator and it wore a hole through a couple of the fins on the radiator. I believe that the radiator is aluminum, so is there anyway that I can repair it? Is there any kind of solder that I can use?
thanks.

take it to a shop to be repaired, common tin/lead solder won't stick to it.
