In certain circumstances it is highly possible to safely switch the type of glove used for a task. For instance, when conducting  high-powered TIG welds, it may be appropriate to use MIG gloves as these better protect against sparks. But for low-power MIG welding or MIG welds on smaller type parts that require greater precision, it may be appropriate to use TIG gloves. Just remember this, when choosing a pair of gloves welders should be aware that MIG gloves may hinder finger movement and high heat while constant sparking may damage TIG gloves.
