Gas weed burner? Any good

I've tried everything on the weeds here. The patio drive and paths are terrible. I've tried every weed killer on the shop floor. We rent so I'm not going to pay to have paths etc re pointed or whatever its called.

Seen weed burners online and thinking maybe that work?
I can't keep spending 15 / 20 every 4 to 6 weeks battling this.

Ah brill that's great to know. Some of the weeds are so tough in the cracks. They look a bit like spider plants really bloody tough.. Drives me nuts

We have one and it is very handy for the situation describe. We haven't pointed our patio yet and a quick wee blast gets rid.

I thought initially you had to basically burn the weed down but my dad told me you are just scorching the leaves which will make the plant die.

We use this stuff (carefully) which kills everything in its path.

Have used that.. And it barely goes yellow. And still tough to get out the ground.
Have ordered one and 8 canisters of gas.
