@nminchin, those styles can’t be reached with the styling that we expose through component properties, but it’s still doable. You’ll need to get into custom theming for that level of control. These style overrides should get you there:

```auto
.ia_table .ia_table__cell .content {
    padding: 0px;
}

.ia_table_body {
    background-color: transparent;
}

.ia_table.ia_container--secondary {
    background-color: transparent;
}

```

Because these are the internals of the component, they are subject to change between releases (just the standard warning with custom theming).
