Good question but why would you want it?
Generally people create a certain level of tolerance to certain substances over time but honestly, inhaling might not be the best way to do so.
Think you are on virgin grounds here. I doubt there's any literature in regards to building up pg tolerance, let alone proper research.

I don't think it works that way because it's an irritant, you might get used to the side effects, or not.. But you can vape less pg and more vg, and maybe at lower levels you don't feel the irritation.
It depends. I have a slight allergy to cat dander, very similar to hay fever. I found that out when I adopted a cat many years back. It didn't get worse over the 14 years I had her and I even seemed to get used to it a bit. I have no issue with my dog.
A friend of mine was an avid woodworker for decades. One day sawdust started bothering him and a few months later he couldn't tolerate it at all anymore.
Vaping nicotine irritates my throat a bit. Nothing serious, just makes me sound a bit hoarse after a while. That has not changed in over three years, though I haven't vaped much nic the last couple of years.
Are you sensitive to PG in general or to vaping PG? How do you know PG is the cause?
Im allergic to pg and i orderd a 70vg/30pg and i got 70pg/30vg i did not notice and after i was vaping it irritated my lungs and everything i could barely breath and ended up in the hospital. now i triple check before i vape it, if i vape more than 30%pg i can feel it after just a few puffs.
Why not avoid PG all together and just vape 100% VG juices? This will completely eliminate any irritation if the PG is the cause of it. And if you're still getting the same irritation then you'll know its not the PG and maybe the nic.
i used to vape 100% vg but there are some e juice i really like thats not 100% vg, im vaping Ruthless Slurricane now its a 90vg/10pg, i have tried different mixes from different brands and different nic levels higher pg at 0mg,3,6,12mg all irritate me the same juice in high vg 0,3,6,12 im fine, with a 50/50 juice i can feel my breathing start to change it will get so bad i cant catch my breath, my visit to the hospital cost me $6,000 i had them check my heart just in case, they said the hearts good. they said all my breathing tubes and lungs were inflammed and irritated and to stay away from pg.
I have seen some companies that don't offer a pg/vg choice. To me that just limits their sales. Dumb way to do business.
I have heard of people doing a skin ..... test. Take a needle and ..... the skin and then add a drop of pg (or vg, or flavor, etc) to see if the body reacts to it.
NOT RECOMMENDED WITHOUT A DOCTOR
I have also heard of success with gradual limited exposure (it was a peanut allergy) which cut down on the side effects of exposure to it.

Most flavorings are found pg based so I can see where someone would want to over come the issue.

There really isn't any 100% vg juices, just as there is not 100% pg juices. You can get pg free juice, but flavorings and nic means neither can be 100%, unless you do a flavor-less, nic-less pg or vg.
Correct. I was going to recommend the OP switch to high VG juices. That's where the clouds are anyway.
You can't go 100% VG. Unless you vape pure unflavored VG.
There is always PG in Nicotine, and flavors.
About the highest you can go is 90-95% VG.
Nic can be gotten in vg not just in pg, and there are a few vg based flavors just not many. There are also flavorings that use an alcohol base instead of either pg or vg.
