An important question about dual specs

Will any buffs you cast be removed by switching from one spec to another?

I think you can see why this is important.

It’s slightly complicated:

If you have a buff on you that another player cast, it should not go away when you switch specs.

If you have a buff tied to a particular talent spec, it will go away on you when you switch specs.

If you have a buff tied to a particular talent spec, it will generally not go away on the rest of the group. The general rule here is it’s as if you left the raid. So paladin blessings (which go away if you leave the raid) will go away. Improved Fortitude will not go away if you change specs to a spec without Improved Fort (though it will fall off of you), as those stay when you leave the raid.
