Don't do it.
access modifiers are meant to guide developers. They, in no way, offer any protection against usage.
A developer which want to access them, is able to, even if they are private and messing with the frameworks defaults can lead to serious issues.
Alternatively...
If your form is a fully stand alone functionality or feature, then make a wrapper around the form.
For example:
//the wrapper
public class PropertyPages : IPropertyPages
{
//your wrapped form...
private YourForm _propertyForm = new YourForm();
//a public show, but the form itself remain inaccessible.
public void Show()
{
_propertyForm.Show();
}
}
