What occurs when light is relected from a rough or unpolished surface?

As with any surface, some of the light will be absorbed by the surface and some will be reflected. If the surface is rough, then the reflected light leaves the surface in a huge number of different directions and so the original beam is not reflected coherently, but is instead scattered in myriad directions.
