I have searched the net and found much info on how to uninstall grub.
And it's always with fdisk/mbd or the xp options. Does grub itself have
any uninstall options? I know there's grub-install to install grub but
will it not uninstall itself?
No, use something like dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda count=1 bs=512
However since you properly want a bootsector then the DOS command fdisk /mbr
works better.
