Hi, If you commited what you had before applying the tl and you only applied the tl over the commited info, you can just reject applied software and go back to the state before applying the fixes.

As far as I know you cannot back out a TL or even an SP, even if not committed, that is what commands like mksysb and the alt_disk... commands are for.
