Weathering is a painting technique used by modellers to create the appearance of dirt and grime and even damage to make the model "whatever it may be" look aged and used.
For example: If you have just built and painted a model of a military Jeep, you may want to give it the appearance of having gone through a muddy field. This can be achieved by adding an earth colour to the walls of the tyres.
