 ### Uninstall ###
 
-To uninstall the AWX deployment you need to direct AWX Operator to initiate the removal which will delete all AWX objects except for persistent volumes.
+To uninstall an AWX deployment instance, you basically need to remove the AWX kind related to that instance. For example, to delete an AWX instance named awx-demo, you would do:
 
 ```bash
 $ kubectl delete awx awx-demo
 awx.awx.ansible.com "awx-demo" deleted
 ```
 
+Deleting an AWX instance will remove all related deployments and statefulsets, however, persistent volumes and secrets will remain. To enforce secrets also getting removed, you can use the garbage_collect_secrets: true.
