It seems to be that when the A/c is on.. then switched off and the fan is still blowing which causes the screen to really mist up quickly/

Yep, that's what I used to find...but it can even be the next morning after using the aircon the previous afternoon. 
 
Best solution is to give your windscreen a good clean inside and then learn not to go from having the air con fully on, turning car engine off, then starting up again without aircon on.  I find it best to turn the aircon off prior to the end of my journey and blow a lot of warmer air through the system, without the aircon on, before turning engine off.     

The other answer is of course to always have A/C on - but I don't like the mpg reduction  :rolleyes: :laugh:
