Underground parking

Hi Folks:
My granddaughter has rented an apartment with underground parking. Yesterday I noticed a stain on her roof that looks like the cement was leaking lime or whatever on her roof.
The internet tells me I can use vinegar to remove the stain but I wonder if there is anything that I can use to treat her roof to minimize any damage as I can't check her car on a daily basis.
I'm think of a special wax or some type of coating.
Any thoughts? Thanks Doug

vinegar is fine.... just wax regularly.. is it isolated to one spot? Can you put a sheet of something on the roof to catch the drips?

Thanks efzauner...I think that's what I'm going to have to do. Hopefully she'll remember to place it back on her car. Thanks for your help.
