There's already a thread about this somewhere. Honestly, if you're any good with electricity just replace the cans with AT IC ones for $15 a piece and cover them with 1 part foam. The alternative sucks. You need to make boxes to surround them and then try to make them air tight in a way which will last for years. I do this ALL the time and I have yet to find a solution which I think is durable and lasting. That is with the exception of replacing the cans with ones meant to be in an attic.
