Roundup is like dynamite when it comes to killing dandelions and weeds but it also nukes grass at the slightest contact, anyway last year I bought a pumpngo setup and it is fine for patios etc, but you need to be careful where else it goes.
I know you can buy roundup gel, but I thought that a simple mod to my pumpngo could save the expense of the gel.
Anyway, this year, I cut a piece of foam as per photos, hollowed out the centre and made it a tight fit on the nozzle. You only need a low pressure for it to dribble out and charge the foam. With a bit of practise, avoiding drips from the foam tip is easy and the damage to grass or other plants is minimal when you CAREFULLY apply to the weeds.
Another bonus is that there is hardly any waste through 'overspray' so the roundup goes further before you run out
