[ANSYS Meshing] Selecting inner faces

This might sound like a silly question but how to select an inner surface in a solid.
I am trying to do an aircraft wing analysis. in order to have higher density mesh near the surface of the wing, i am selecting the 'face sizing' option in mesh. it is okay with half wing since the wall is at the root of the wing. how to do 'inside' when the 'wing shaped hole' in inside the control volume.

Hard to explain in words, but I hope you get it
