RoundUp & Vinegar

RoundUp: A famous horticulturist/breeder once told me how he used RoundUp in his breeding fields. He put on a long rubber glove and taped it to his arm. Over the rubber glove he put an ordinary cheap cotton gardening glove. He then stuck the gloved hand into a bucket full of RoundUp, soaking the cotton glove. He would wring out the excess, and then grab the weeds he wanted to kill, wetting whatever he could grab without touching the adjacent desirable plants. Much faster than a paintbrush, no possibility of overspray. 
Vinegar: Some farm/ag chemical supply stores sell much stronger stuff, 20% acidity as opposed to the 5% sold at the grocery store. Good for killing algae.
