     private void dgvProducts_DataBindingComplete(object sender, DataGridViewBindingCompleteEventArgs e)
     {
         //dgvProducts.ClearSelection();
         ((DataGridView)sender).ClearSelection();
     }

            for (int i = 0; i < dgvProducts.Columns.Count; i++)
            if (dgvProducts.Columns[i] is DataGridViewImageColumn)

Try creating a new event OnShow and do this code:

    protected override void OnShown(EventArgs e)
    {
        if (this.dataGridView1.SelectedCells.Count > 0)
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < this.dataGridView1.SelectedCells.Count; i++)
                this.dataGridView1.SelectedCells[i].Selected = false;
        }
    }
