Nothing to do immediately except let the cat hack it up. To prevent more of them there are several things you can do. Specialized cat food and medicine are available for hairball control. A home remedy is to offer the cat an occasional spoonful of margarine. Butter or petroleum jelly can also be used, but the butter is fattening and the petroleum jelly tastes bad.

Will vaseline on the roof of your cats mouth help bring up a hairball?

Probably not, although it may help make your cat hate you and gag a lot. The hairball is lodged in the cat's stomach, so he is basically trying to throw up a wad of hair. Vaseline, or any petroleum jelly product, in the cat's mouth will just be a distraction that your cat will not thank you for.
