Sorry but why do you want Mountain Lion when Mavericks is free? This is the only thing I can think of as to why you are deferring Mavericks; the cost. Well there isn't one. As others have said the only way to get Mountain Lion back we think is by using a bootable USB device with the Mountain Lion installer on it.

Hi listers,

I still run mountain lion. When I try to reinstall clean, it wants to give me 
Mavericks. Is there a way still, to do a clean install of mountain lion?

Here's what I did:
Reboot the mac. After the sound, I hold command r to boot from the recovery 
partition. Then, I use disk utility to clean the macintosh hd partition. Then, 
I install the OS, using 1 of the 4 choices from the recovery partition. This 
menu has things like restore from time machine, reinstall OS10 etc. That's how 
I tried to reinstall, hoping I would get mountain lion. Instead, it tries to 
get me over to mavericks. Is there any way you can think of, to get a fresh 
mountain lion install instead?

Kind regards,
Paul.
