The invention provides a composition for forming a coating film containing a phosphoric acid group-containing polymer capable of forming a film on a substrate by a simple process and capable of maintaining film properties under a solvent environment containing water, and a coating film which is a cured product of the composition. In particular, the composition for forming a coating film contains (a) a polymer (P) containing a hydroxyl group, and the hydroxyl group is derived only from a phosphoric acid group, (b) a polycarbodiimide (C) containing a structure represented by the following formula (c-1):

—N═C═N—  (c-1),

and (c) a solvent.

A low volatile organic compound (VOC) coating composition with a low viscosity is described. The coating composition includes a hydrocarbon solvent; a reactive or non-reactive diluent; a drier composition; and a hyper-branched alkylated polymer. A colorant can be added so that the coating composition can be used as a stain, such as a wood stain. The hyper-branched alkylated polymer functions as the main binder to provide an effective coating composition having a relatively low VOC level.
