The best way to clean and paint old wooden doors is to sand, prime, and paint.
An inexpensive orbital sander (belt sander if the door/wood is in really rough shape) and start with 80 grit, 100 grit, and 120 grit sandpaper. Sand the door completely with each grit. Prime with a quality primer and 2 coats of outdoor door paint.

Is this for interior or exterior doors? Also before you sand make sure to wear a mask in case there is lead in the paint.
