How to delete the Steam Cloud?

I have a game where the Steam Cloud files are corrupt. I need to delete them to reset the game. The problem is that whenever I delete them locally, Steam restores them with the corrupted files from the cloud. How do I get round this?

I'm just powering it up now. It's certainly deleted something, just a question as to whether it has deleted everything.
The difference was having the game running when you delete the saves.
You would think that Steam would have a button to erase the cloud data.
Anyway, it's in the intro movie, I will know in a few minutes.
Thank you for your help.
