The Olympic brand deck cleaner does have bleach in it, but I am unsure of the ratio. DO NOT put straight bleach on your deck unless you want a white deck.

First you need to wash it with wood soap and then stain it to protect the wood.

My son-in-law used a power sprayer, very forceful one, and the deck looked new. I have no idea what they cost but you could probably rent one for a day at an Equipment Rental place.

Now this is just a thought, an online friend said she did this and it worked, so I'm just taking her word for it. She bought a small can of stain (comes in various colors) at the hardware store, she let it soak it after she applied it with a sponge mop. Then she put two coats of varnish on it ,. again with a sponge mop and she said it's easier to maintain now.

Use Bleach to clean the deck and using a sprayer to put it on makes it easier. Let it sit for a bit and then wash off. It will be like new.
