I don't want the user to be able to see them or edit them, but I want the program to call get and set methods as if they're showing normally.

     I'm not sure what's going on, because it seems straightforward and
should work as advertised (has worked as advertised, for me).  You can
modify the contents of your TableModel without regard to whether the
cells are or aren't visible; "as if they're showing normally."  The
JTable listens to its model, and when it receives a change event it
first determines whether the change is to a visible part of the table.
If the changed cells are not visible -- hidden by a RowFilter, or just
scrolled out of sight -- nothing gets repainted.

     I can't help you with this part, since I've never tried to mess
with the plaf layers.  On the other hand, I've never needed to: For
filtering, sorting, and custom-painting rows and cells, I've just
used RowFilter, TableRowSorter, and sometimes a customized
TableCellRenderer or TableCellEditor.  These have met my needs
without recourse to mucking about in the lower levels.
