Separating a hot-glued turning

>After finish turning the bottom of a piece, I'd like to reverse it and hot glue it to a waste blank. Later on, however, I want to be able to remove it from the waste blank without using a parting tool.
Has anyone found a solvent or a procedure to separate a hot-glued turning from the blank?

Thanks for the suggestions
