Cover Baseboard HW Heaters?

I have 2 of 4 bedrooms not being used in the house. All are upstairs and on the same zone. I'd like to somehow insulate around the fins in the 2 unused rooms to try and save some heat $$. Does anyone know of a product made for this purpose that would fit around the fins (w/covers off or on)?

Reynolds Wrap

Heavy duty aluminum foil.

But if they are on their own zone, why not just turn that zone thermostat down ? Wait, never mind, you want heat in the other two rooms...
