Should we replace the 100 year old copper roof or treat it?

This house has what appears to be the original copper roof (probably over 100 years old). We have seen some evidence of a little leaking. Should be rip the roof off and put shingles or is there a good treatment? I heard there is some coating that can be sprayed on the copper roof. Any help would be great!

Try Everbrite [a finishing.com supporting advertiser] coating and find good plumber, copper roofing probably needs some repair(soldering).Hope it helps and good luck!
