The Ford Barn

Now that I have your attention...

I picked up and installed one of Mr. Rupert's Extreme Duty leakless water pumps. Its a really nice product. The recommendation is to add water pump lubricant to the water. I also have an old radiator that was flushed and pressure tested and found to have a tiny weep, maybe 2 oz in 24 hrs, towards the bottom. The experienced vintage radiator technician said a little Bar's Leak will solve that problem and not to worry. Here's my question....can I add both products to the water? I'm thinking cycle the Bar's leak in and then the lubricant after the Bar's leak does its job. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
