Does a "clean" mean issuing a deletion query (e.g. <delete><id>*:*</id></delete>) prior to re-indexing all of your content? I don't think the slaves will download any changes until you've committed at some point on the master. If you delete everything and then commit, and proceed to re-index, then the slaves will pick that up at some point, perhaps sooner than you'd like.
If you expect the slaves to continue to serve queries during this process, then don't commit on the master until you want the slaves to be aware of what you've done. If it's more complicated where you're going to perform multiple commits on the master, or shut it down and remove the data files etc., then I think it makes sense to turn off replication during that interval. Once you're happy with your update on the master, then enable replication again.
