The spray on does a great job of sealing the wall as well - zero air
infiltration after that. It's more expensive for materials but the
labor cost is much cheaper since it's so quick. If you're doing the
work yourself, it can be more $. 2x6 will be good for the partition
for the extra insulating space but depending on the outside walls,
may be unneeded. Would be a more stable wall too, if that matters to you....
