Glue on vintage mobile phone boards

Collected about 100 grams batch of this, completely solder free.
Every thing is so thin there, got to be at least 1% Gold.
My problem is glue on it, when I boil remainings after most plating come off of the boards in very weak AR, to get the last bit of Gold out of it, all the glue on them sticks to walls of my glassware and it's real big pain in the ass to clean it.
What I can use as a solvent to remove this glue? Will DCM work?

Difficult to know what your glue actually is but I find acetone dissolves allot of plastics.
