The best place to start is within ADD REMOVE program within Control Panel in Windows. This process takes you through the same screens as installing SQL Server but you then have the option to chose to also remove components and you can specify which instance to do these actions against. Usually an uninstall of the full version requires a restart to complete the process.

Or "Program and Features" if working with Window Server 2008 or above :)

To perform a clean install , take a look at this post to clean the registry entries left after uninstalling.
