Default Removal of Disk for brake job

Gentlemen:

I just join the forum and would like to tap into your vast expertise for an answer.

I have a 1979 Volvo S-70 AWD and need to do a brake job front and back. I still have about 4mm left on the pads. The car brakes ok and there is no vibration pointing to warped disks. I still want to reface the disk before I install the new pads. My problem: How do you remove the disk. I have looked at it and there is a 36mm nut that I think I must remove to remove the disk but I am not sure. Any advice?

Also, anyone has any experience with ceramic brake pads for the front? Should I install them? NAPA sells ceramic pads that would take care of all that black crud that accumulates in the front wheel rims.

Thanks in advance for your advice
