Any repair other than a good and proper repair will result in the joint leaking again, bite the bullet and repair it properly and then you won't have to replace your ceiling at a later date.

If it's copper pipe, soldered joint, look for "leak fix" or "plastic padding" Made by the same company anyway. I used plastic padding to seal a similar weeping joint on plumbing. Was still intact and not leaking, after 20 years! :-)

no, if pipes are copper, if they are cpvc you can get some primer and glue . locate the leak, turn water off, dry area, prime and spread glue over area, repeat 2-3 times

I've been seeing this advertisement for an epoxy putty that is supposed to fix problems like this on TV. I don't know how well it works but they show it in the commercial.

You can buy a clamp with a seal. No sprays.
