Strimmer to clean slabs/paths etc?

[Stere]

Can anyone recommend  a strimmer head to clean weeds from paths etc

 

 

 

I often just use regular strimmer line but wondering if there better options attachments etc?

@Stere we uuse a Brushcutter with guides an abrasive 3M paint stripper  pad, on it for cleaning Oak debris off rail.  Think they fit or can be made to fit.  K

I would Just spray them off then rake it up a few weeks later .

what about those power broom type things for a Stihl kombi? That would be less damaging to the paving etc

You are right though some kombi models not that great . recently bought a mantis tiller which can take a similar brush .i might experiment with that . J

I have to strim weeds on block paving and do with a normal line. You get through line quickly and the heads wear as well.
Your post got me thinking and digging about. Have you seen ones like below. Would be interested to try I think

It should be remembered these are not approved accessories for the strimmer so as with the broggio chain heads are technically banned from use

Can you imagine if a dog walks over the area shortly after it has been treated with one of those - it's paws would be like a pin cushion!

That too but I was considering the plastic one rather than the link he gave
