I agree with that, plus putting the insulation around your foot boxes and trimming the edges with aluminum stock gives a neater appearance and keeps it from peeling off. Here's a pic of mine at that stage of the process. Again, the insulation is just a few bucks and the aluminum trim pieces you probably have sitting around the garage.
