Answer 1

I found this answer much easier to implement:

This allowed me to put a full backcolor on my cell.

1. Create a Panel, which has a backcolor, and
2. I Dock that Panel in my TableLayoutPanel

Then that TableLayoutPanel Cell has a backcolor.

My Code ended up looking like this:

Panel backgroundColorPanel = new Panel();
backgroundColorPanel.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(243, 243, 243);
backgroundColorPanel.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
backgroundColorPanel.Margin = new Padding(0);
backgroundColorPanel.Anchor = ((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles)(System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Top | System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Left));
backgroundColorPanel.AutoSize = true;
backgroundColorPanel.AutoSizeMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoSizeMode.GrowAndShrink;
this.originalTableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add(backgroundColorPanel, 0, row);
