Did you had free time to check your oven temperature? Or do you have an industrial oven, with ventilation, exhaust fans and so on? I was wondering if DuPont changed something in Vacrel to emit lower fumes, but no, the Soldermask fumes are same aggresive. I can assure you that if you intend to cure at the specified temperature you will have a lot of trouble with other members of your home, apart of you! The smells are insopportable.
