Noob question: how to solid fill an object to hide internal details from others.

[Hylus-Arbor]

Sorry for the Noob question but I have a model which I'd like to share with someone but I also want to obscure what's going in inside the item. I thought that the simplest way might be to solid-fill all internal cavities and then combine all the individual parts to make one solid lump. Externally it will look perfect but all the internals will be hidden. 

Can anyone suggest if this is the best way to do this or if there's a simpler method which I'm totally missing.

Thanks.

Catch 22.  We can’t see it, to advise.

Make a copy model file, delete internal details.  
If the external shape is early in the timeline, Export body as Step file,

Thanks Dave. I know what you mean - it's tricky to advise on something which you cant see!
The whole item is made up of around 60 parts, all of which are visible externally. It's just the detail of how they go together inside which I'd like to hide. Think of a car body as an example. I'd like to send someone a model to show them how the overall car looks externally without letting them investigate how all the body panels are held together.

Think of a watch, roll timeline back, until all internals are not existing, 

save / Export - body / component, ???
in the format you wish.
