Let it cool then use.
Warning. It will kill anything it gets on.
I sprayed some African love grass with it.
Dead in two days.
I failed miserably trying to get the salt dissolved, even tried a few other tricks such as heatin in the microwave. Are you sure that you have your measurement ratios correct as I noted the following from the 'net site -

Natural Weed Killer
1 gallon white vinegar
1 cup salt
1 tablespoon liquid dish soap
------------------------------------------------------------
Another site had the same measurements -
Pour 1 gallon of white vinegar into a bucket. Everyday 5-percent household white vinegar is fine for this weed killer. You wont need higher, more expensive concentrations such as 10 or 20 percent. It may take two or three days longer to kill the weeds with the lower concentration, but they will die.
Add 1 cup of table salt. Stir the solution with a long-handled spoon until all the salt dissolves completely.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of liquid dishwashing soap. This will act as a surfactant and make the vinegar and salt solution adhere to the weeds more efficiently. Blend thoroughly.

I may just decant off the mix from the residual salt and see what that does.
