    Just delete all the demo top level categories. You may also want to go into the images directory and clean up in there.

    Deleting the products/categories is "one" way. ... but that leaves all the demo attributes, customers, test orders, etc.

    If you want to start from scratch, run zc_install/index.php from your browser again, and click Install, and redo all the settings... but don't choose the demo data. You'll end up with a nice squeaky-clean store.

    Will this retain all of the customizations, css changes, etc.?

    If you only delete the categories/products, then all the rest of your customizations will remain.
