Well, I don't have any special technique or anything. I let my rifle suppressor cool off before I pack it away. Often I'll shoot something else last so I'm not just hanging around while it cools. But if I don't have time to let it cool I'll let it hang out of the end of my rifle bag so it doesn't touch anything - I have my rifle in a break-down bag so it's still fairly compact even with the suppressor hanging out.
My pistol can is a different story. It doesn't get anywhere near as hot as a rifle suppressor so I just wrap it in a rag to take it off and pack it away.
I was told by several people that if you use water to cool off a suppressor you can warp it. I don't know how much of an issue that might be, but I have no interest in finding out.
