You seem to be using cell styles, which is good. Are you also using a Table Style to coordinate the applying of the Cell Styles?

After applying the Table Style, make sure to notice any + sign next to None in Cell Styles. Use the button at the bottom to remove that overrided + sign you see.

When making Cell Styles, have nothing selected. Be in a black Selection arrow. Have nothing selected and then click on the Add New Cell Style button to make/define a cellstyle. That way, you cannot possibly mix any overrides or corrutions into the style.

And when applying: 

1) select whole Table, 

2) clear Table Style Overrides, 

3) clear Cell Style Overrides, 

4) now you can apply Table Styles and - if really needed - extra Cell Styles. 

 

If you work on a PC - even free version of my ID-Tasker tool can automate all the above steps with one click - and do a lot more.
