IMHO It would be easier to go from TIG ot MIG than vice versa - I base this due to TIG welders being much more conscious with surface prep & surface contamination compared to MIG welders.

I read A LOT ASBOUT TIG prior to buying one 15 years ago - I learned electrode prep and grinding makes a LARGE difference in weld quality.
I ground rods with a shop stone in a haphazard fashion and then on the correct GREEN stone GROUND CORRECTLY & which I only use for TUNGSTEN.
The difference between the TWO in ARC establishment and stability along with the lack of "wander" will make a person a BELIEVER!
