Macbook Pro retina restore to factory settings?

I just bought a new MacBook Pro retina display on July 2012.

Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E2620)

I used the migration assistant with my old mac.

The result was really bad and I want to start from scratch.

How can I restore everything to default settings?, also erasing every program installed from my old mac.

I wanted that the computer be as new.

Thanks a lot!.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

restart your macbook while holding down the command + r keys....once you see the apple logo, release the keys and you'll boot into the disk utility menu - format/erase your macbook then reinstall your os from there.

that will give you a clean install...

good luck
