uninstall guide should contains scripts to remove finalizers

[survivant]

https://docs.openebs.io/docs/next/uninstall.html

like this

Ensure that there are no stale BlockDeviceClaims present in the cluster. You can verify the status using the following command.

kubectl get bdc -n <openebs namespace>

If present, remove the finalizer entry from the corresponding BDC.

it should includes the command to delete them.

like

root@test-pcl114:~# kubectl get bdc -n openebs
NAME                                             BLOCKDEVICENAME                           PHASE   AGE
bdc-cstor-49e263e4-82da-47b8-b5fc-83d7f9010e59   sparse-0352c127ae5e3c70a24bd9a476a31359   Bound   7d19h
bdc-cstor-806d324f-5a8b-4d80-bacc-2b33d8b914fc   sparse-23516928ac3e7cb19467d0f16bd5cdab   Bound   6d20h
root@test-pcl114:~#

You could provide a command line like this

 kubectl patch -n openebs bdc bdc-cstor-806d324f-5a8b-4d80-bacc-2b33d8b914fc -p '{"metadata":{"finalizers":null}}' --type=merge

or something like that

kubectl delete cspc -n openebs --all --wait=false
kubectl patch -n openebs -p '{"metadata":{"finalizers":null}}' --type=merge $(kubectl get cspc -n openebs -o name)
