I have a white table cloth with some stains that won't go off. I've tried all sprays and even washed on 60 degrees.
Would you pour bleach directly on stain or would I ruin it completely?

I would do Clorox bleach spray on the spot let it sit and then wash it off in sink well then wash in machine

Spray oven degreaser spray on spot very generously. Let sit for it least an hour, preferably in a clean plastic bag tightly closed.
Wash separately, preferably with a detergent intended for white garments.
I've had total success with this method, even with very bad stains.

Did you try soaking it in lestoil? I really find that gets stains out. You can also try ironout.

We had an issue like that once and googled it and found that if you make a paste with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide and rub it on the stains it completely gets rid of them after you wash it. The tablecloth looked bright white and brand new. Just wash like regular after the mixture sits on the tablecloth for a few minutes. The only reason I knew where the stains used to be was that there were some that I didn’t cover and those were still very visible while the ones right next to them that we did cover with the mixture were completely gone.

I should add that this was after we used many other methods like white out and oxi and even sent it to the cleaners and nothing worked at all. There were huge yellow stains. Now it’s the whitest one I have and the one I use all the time.

I always wash my white tablecloths in bleach load, never ruined any of them.
If you're ready to throw it away you can try shumanit degreaser. It's super powerful, I know ppl that saved tablecloth with it.

Depends on what fabric. Some synthetics are dyed white and cant handle chlorine bleach.

I feel like white out and oxi and the cleaners are a complete waste of time if you actually want something clean. The only way to clean real stains is with lestoil, iron out, or oven cleaner as another poster pointed out. Post cleaner, things can be permanently stained. I think you should soak it in lestoil for an hour, soak it in iron out for 30 mintues, and spray it with over cleaner and let it sit. See if you see any improvements then wash with blue detergent and more lest oil in the machine. You can add a brightener to the loan if you want.
