I know people who use a paintbrush to apply Roundup to the
stems or root ends of woody shrubs/vines. Apparently it does work,
even though it isn't being applied to foliage.

kMy land slopes down into the woods on three sides and those hillsides were
covered in honeysuckle bushes when we first moved here. Our technique was
to cut them off close to the ground with the chainsaw and then paint
full-strength Round-Up on the cut stems with a paintbrush. There is very little
honeysuckle left now.
