Decking protection/Stain/cleaner

Hello there, I am having some decking installed over the next few days (just in time for the rain!) and will be staining/protecting/cleaning over the weekend. Could anyone recommend some good products please as I don't want to waste any money and have to re-do the whole thing again in a few months.
Got a couple of products in mind but would be great to hear from anyone here that might have used them and perhaps a good technique or formula of products?
Thank you very much

I use Liberon Decking Oil, said to be one of the best protection treatments for decking on the market. The wood looks absolutely beautiful when it's done. I order from here http://www.deckingoil.co.uk it's the best price & you get free delivery when buying 2 or more. Even if you only need one to cover your decking now, it's worth ordering 2 to keep for when you need to do it again & get the free delivery.The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.
I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.0 -
hey sorry for delay, thanks very much. I'll check it out0

Yip liberon is good stuff, been using it now for a few years, 5ltr does my 4m x 5m deck with some to spare, cheapest I found was toolstation , £26.94 delivered but catties link looks great if you buy 2, actualy bought it from there the first year I got my decking.

Do you have to remove old stain when you use Liberon. I have Ronseal decking on mine its waster based so sits on top is still fairly good condition as I only did it last year doesn't get much traffic0
