Two steps:

1. Capture Control.MouseDown Event
   • Get the current color in OldColor
   • Set the new color; and it would reflect the colored control.
   • Something like button1.BackColor = Color.Red;
2. Capture the Control.MouseUp Event
   • Set the OldColor

Look at this highlight color on button click i think it deals with your problem

Why don't you go for CSS psuedo classes(:active,:hover), please take a look at this code.

        <div class="rollover">    
           <a href="#"><img src="Jpeg/image.gif" /></a>
        </div>
        <style type="text/css">
         <!--
            .rollover a { display:block; width:32px; background-color: #FFFFFF}
            .rollover a:hover { background-color: #990000}
            .rollover a:active { background-color: #876787}
          -->
        </style>
