The "roughness" of the surface will reflect light into many directions, scattering it away from your eyes. If the white surface is opaque, it's probably filtering out some wavelengths and would not be very reflective, although it is giving off "white light"
A white rough surface reflects light rays in many directions, causing them to scatter and not form a clear image of your reflection. This diffuse reflection results in a lack of distinct reflection, making it difficult to see your reflected image on a white rough surface.
When light is reflected from a rough or unpolished surface, it is scattered in various directions due to the uneven surface. This diffused reflection causes the light to be reflected in an irregular manner, resulting in a lack of a clear or focused image.
In diffused reflection, light is reflected in random directions by a rough or irregular surface. This results in the formation of a blurred or fuzzy image as the reflected light rays are scattered.
A rough surface scatters light in random directions, making it difficult for the rays to reflect back to your eyes in a clear manner to form a visible image. This results in a lack of reflective properties and a distorted or blurry reflection, making it hard to see your image on a white rough surface.
Diffuse reflection occurs when light rays strike a rough surface and get reflected in random directions. This type of reflection results in a matte appearance and does not produce a clear image.
Bounces off
Some light that falls on any surface is scattered back (reflected). A rough surface tends to scatter the light in different directions while a smooth surface tends to scatter more of the original (incident) rays straight back. This explains why a smooth surface reflects a "clearer" image than that reflected from a rough surface.

because the surface is rough, the waves of light are reflected at different angles, and so r scattered all over the place, hence giving a blurry, or in some cases no image at all

No, light is not reflected evenly on a rough surface. A rough surface scatters light in different directions due to irregularities in the surface, which can result in diffuse reflection rather than specular reflection.
For an object to reflect an entire image, its surface must be smooth and flat. Rough or curved surfaces will distort or scatter the reflection, preventing an entire image from being reflected.
interference
Yes, when light hits a rough surface and is reflected in many different directions, it is called diffuse reflection. This type of reflection occurs when the surface is not smooth and causes the light to scatter.
