Anything gained turning the exhaust vents off for 30 minute flash times?

Is there anything gained (or lost) for turning the exhaust fans off between the 30-45 min flash times when applying multiple UC coats during the flow-coat stage?
I know there is a possibility of kicking up dust maybe when turned on (mine are on/off in stages). I ask because I see in the SPI tech manual it looks adamant about turning off the fans within one minute after the last coat when overspray is evacuated but was curious if there would be any gains after each coat. This would be in my unheated booth.

Thanks,
Mike
 
No and can do either way, most leave running from what i hear but cold shops in winter will shut down after a few minutes.
 
Thanks, Barry. I'll leave them on then. One thing I can see good by running the fans is it will continue to vent the the booth due to out-gassing.
