Round up is NOT Ground Clear (the everything is dead for a year stuff), right?

There are two things that are left when the weeks are killed. Lots of dead (black looking) grass stalks plus the dead weed stalks. I could mow them down as low as possible (with a bagger). But raking doesn't seem like it would remove anything beyond the mowing. I wonder if weed eating down to dirt makes any sense. Or maybe a better technique. Or maybe that's overkill?

How long will that take?
